Beeing subject to misleading policy for more than four decades, the East-European former Communist Countrie's (EECC) economies have now found themselves in a very difficult position. Allocation problems, structural unbalances and huge overemployment will not be solveable following the principles of instrumental economics, but will also have to be based on the cinsensus between the social agents. The contemporary situation in the EECC shows some convergence points with the situation in the postwar Western Germany. This chapter is discussing the comparable facts in the mentioned two cases and is stressing the possibilities for consultation and application of the social market economy record in the former EECC.
