Sažetak
This article present a report of work in progress within which the focus is on the role of supranational and global agencies in the making of post-communist social policy. This article summarizes the findings of an initial pilot study sets out a conceptual framework and methodological approach for researching globalism and post-communist social policy. A link is hypothesized between agency policy orientation and welfare regime type. The social advice offered Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union by the World Bank is reviewed. Drawing upon the findings of the pilot study and of the interim conclusions of those aspects of the ongoing study reported here the paper concludes with the argument that the present phase of globalization is marked by a significant inter and intra supranational and global agency discourse about social policy. This discourse which embraces both the traditional issues of appropriate national social policy ant the new issues of supranational regulation, redistribution and provision is an important element in the shaping of future social policy not only in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union but, also, elsewhere.
