After numerous predominantly quantitative and linguistic systems oriented investigations of the Anglo-American influence upon the German and other West European languages, this volume seeks to throw a little light onto the respective conditions of so-called post-socialist societies. By means of authentic opinions and experiences of some linguists living in these countries, it aims less at the quantitative impact of the Americanism there than at its possible economic, social, political, and cultural implications.
