This paper interrogates the existence of the East-Central European post-colonialism, which has known considerable dissemination in the post-colonial studies of the last decade. There are two versions to this mentioned: (1) that of “remote” pot-colonialism, according to which East-Central Europe was the field of the colonization carried out by the great Western powers, which was seen in the construction and propagation of the so-called “East-European Orientalism”; and (2) that of post-colonialism “by annexation”, according to which East-Central Europe was colonised by the regional empires. The thesis of “remote” post-colonialism is rejected, as “Orientalization” is a process which was applied not only by Western Europe to Eastern Europe, but it can equally well be said to characterize the relations between countries situated only in the West or only in the East of Europe. Therefore, in its current configuration, such a thesis faces the anger of blending any conceptual distinction in a post-colonialism without shores. In order to prevent such conceptual indeterminacy, the thesis of post-colonialism “by annexation” is reformulated here within a theory of (inter) literary dependency, based on Wallerstein´s world systems analysis, Even-Zohar´s poly-system theory and Ďurišin´s theory of inter-literary process. The author´s study differentiates among 4 types of “dependent” literatures – minority, marginal, post-colonial and mimetic – which are used in the characterization of the position of East-Central European literatures over the past two centuries. The conclusion of this paper is that with the exception of the former Soviet Republics, post-colonialism represents a valid instrument in the analysis of East –Central European literatures only for several provinces in the Tsarist and Austro-Hungarian Empires.

Among others the interpretations in the second part deal with the law of property in the transforming states of Central and East Europe. It is typical that all these states, which belonged to the sphere of socialist law until 1989, adopted legislative measures toward restoration of the regular category of the law of property already in the first phase of the fundamental social changes, which meant a transformation of the political, economic and legal system of society. The restoration became a fundamental part of the return to the private law code and a prerequisite of the introduction of market economy. In this wider socio-political context, the author provides interpretations of the private law reform in these states, including general description of the new regulation of the law of property. The reform itself was implemented or is under implementation in the individual national legislations through new codification of private law or through special laws regulating the basic areas of private law. The first group comprises states, which already adopted new civil codes: Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania, Estonia, Romania and Czech Republic. Poland and Slovakia, where intensive work on new private law code is being carried out as a part of the completitions of the legislative process, can also be include in the first group. The second group comprises in particular state of the former Yugoslavia: Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Finally, for comparison purposes, the article briefly addresses the law of property in the second large system of law, which is partially applied in the European legal area – Anglo-American law.

This article draws from recent research that makes an argument for studying literature from what David Chioni Moore calls 'the post-Soviet sphere' under the rubric of postcolonial theory. It contends that conceiving of countries formerly under Soviet rule as having some characteristics in common with countries once under French colonial rule can yield productive results. It is quite possible that the concentration in literary studies on relations between the First and Third Worlds has left a void with respect to the Second World, at least with respect to francophone writers. We can begin to fill this void by studying texts in French by writers from places formerly under Soviet domination, and this article examines the fictional and theoretical works of Julia Kristeva, Agota Kristof, Milan Kundera, Andrei Makine and Brina Svit. Their insights are used here to explore the extent to which intellectuals from small Central and Eastern European countries find themselves in a 'postcolonial' position - politically and linguistically - similar to that of francophone scholars and writers from the Maghreb, sub-Saharan Africa or the Antilles.
