East/Central European states share a common historical heritage,
each of them having been impacted by pre-World War I empires, Soviet
influence and a dramatic transition to democracy and free market
economy in 1989. Twenty years after the collapse of the Berlin Wall and
the re-introduction of multi-party democracy, the member states of the
Visegrad Group should aim for greater cooperation and alignment of
policies when negotiating with other European Union countries, in order
to increase the region’s voice and weight both within the EU and
abroad.
This website and journal hopes to help increase awareness about the
political, social, economic and cultural trends occurring in the four
member states, provide a forum for scholars and assist in developing
greater dialogue in the region.
