25 Years of the Transition Strategy Debate: Radicalism versus Gradualism
通过综述文献，追溯了前社会主义国家向市场经济转型中激进主义与渐进主义两种改革哲学的学术辩论，发现25年来争论未息且无趋同迹象，并揭示了辩论态度与文献属性（如作者、研究内容、发表媒介）的紧密关联。
In this paper, we trace the academic debate on the transition strategies that former socialist countries have adopted and implemented in evolving towards a market-oriented economy through a comprehensive review of the preceding literature. The debate has developed as an argument between two conflicting reform philosophies, namely, radicalism and gradualism. Despite that a quarter century that has passed since the fall of the Berlin Wall, we found that academic discussion regarding these two reform alternatives has continued, and there is no sign of convergence. We also found a close relationship between the debate attitudes and the literature attributes, such as authorship, research contents and publication media.
