摘要：The subject of this paper is a critical analysis of the key negative
phenomena, processes, and tendencies in the crisis environment
of transition countries of the South East Europe (SEE),
as well as the explanation of how to form and maintain the
institutionally monistic order (of neoliberal type), which is metaphorically
named institutional nihilism, because it represents
the synergy of many destructive elements. The aim of this paper
is to point out the fundamental causes and consequences
of systemic and institutional failures. It starts with the basic
hypothesis that these failures derive from the dominance of
politics over economy and entire society, i.e. from the unprincipled
implementation of the voting machinery principles. Two
auxiliary hypotheses are also being tested: a) under the influence
of strong alternative institutions, institutional nihilism has
been created as a degeneration institutional order, which is the
main cause of the long-term threat to development (social,
economic, scientific, educational, cultural, and ethical); and b)
dirigisme as institutional monism does not have to derive exclusively
from the state (collectivist) sources, but can also derive
from private (individual) sources. In this paper, these hypotheses
are verified through implementation of general methods
of social and economic sciences. It is concluded that phenomenology
of institutional nihilism is the main cause of unsuccessful
post-socialist transition in the SEE countries.
