POPREBEL project
Within POPREBEL I intend to scrutinise the varieties of anomalies of capitalism, with a special focus on the presence of informal networks and hierarchies in capitalist structures, labelled many times as new feudalism, neo-feudalism or re-feudalisation. This direction is supplemented with the research question, how Central and Eastern European urban and rural regions effects each other’s socio-economic and cultural development.
