Abstract
The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 paved the way for changes in every aspect of life in this region. New opportunities
and new risks emerged for all members of society. The main drive for change has been bold economic and political
reform - the transition from planned systems to market economies and from authoritarian regimes to more participatory
societies. But the 1990s also saw a broader, worldwide transition: a change in thinking about what constitutes social progress. The 1990s represent only the first period in a continuing process of economic and social change.
Nevertheless, a decade is sufficient time to see the main trends clearly and to identify both the advances and the
setbacks that the transition has entailed for different aspects of human welfare, together with the possibilities for
progress in the future.

A Decade of Transition
The Report provides a review of the first 10 years of transition, exploiting the fact that data are now available on many issues that cover the entire 1990s. The core chapters examine the record of the decade in four key areas affecting human welfare: income inequality and child poverty, health, education, and child protection. An introductory chapter analyses key economic and demographic trends. In each case, the Report summarizes developments to the end of the decade, discussing both the outcomes measured with statistical data and the policy options.
