From a historical perspective the period between the fall of the Berlin Wall (1989) until the
Wall Street crash of 2008 was brief but the social changes were far-reaching and resulted in
the profound alteration of institutional frameworks of post-socialist societies in Central and
East European countries e.g. Estonia. This book examines the transformation of Estonian
society concentrating on changes in the stratification order. The (re)distribution of the
risks and opportunities between different groups in Estonian society the 'most neoliberal' in
the European Union and the perceptions about fairness of the most radical changes in
post-socialist world are the main issues of this volume.
