Abstract

The multicultural experience of the author inspires a reflection on the persistence of certain negative features in several societies despite profound transformations not only outside and even also inside them. In the post-communist reality of eastern Europe, the national reconstruction meets obstacles originating not only from the rigid nature of the Soviet style state socialism and the one party rule, but also from the pre-communist heritage. The inability to deal with the past and take a constructive approach to the present and to the future is behind the phenomenon of “truncation”, preventing the given society to enter the road of a substantial reconstruction in the conditions of free market economy of the Western style democracy.
