DOI: 10.1080/00420989220080851 Urbanisation in East Central Europe: Social Processes and Societal Responses in the State Socialist SystemsCentre for Regional Studies, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, PO Box 527, Budapest H-1538, Hungary The paper analyses the changes in the production system and their effects during the socialist era. The author states that European spatial forms of urban development were propagated in East Central Europe during the last 40 years as a consequence of (a) general industrialisation, (b) urban planning which aimed at 'catching up with the West' and (c) the strength of informal society which continued to express traditional urban values.
