Books of great political insight and novelty always outlive their time of birth and this reissued work, initially published in 1985, is no exception. Written shortly after the formation of Charter 7, the essays in this collection are among the most original and compelling pieces of political writing to have emerged from central and Eastern Europe during the whole of the post-war period.
‘This brilliant text is undoubtedly the finest analysis ever made of the `post-totalitarian' systems.’- Times Literary Supplement
‘A profound intellectual tour de force that analyzes the `post-totalitarian' system of Eastern Europe. ... Havel's The Power of the Powerless has not lost its intellectual appeal.’- Slavic Review
