The economic transition of the former socialist economies to market ones is completed based on various criteria. The framework of the market economy in respective countries has produced a vast gamut of post socialist economic performance ranging from resumed growth to outright stagnation and a reversal of major reforms. The analysis of the institutional rigidity and institutional re-engineering during the economic transition provides for the potential explanation of varieties of post socialism.
