Abstract
The subject of the work is to confirm the complexity of the relationship between the economy, culture, and institutions, concerning civilisational changes in the historical development process. The paper aims to point out the importance of culture for the sustainability of institutions and the economic system. It is based on three basic hypotheses: first, that the so-called "neoliberal culture" succeeded the post-socialist one in the period of the so-called institutional vacuum; secondly, that both were transitional, without consistency and a realistically sustain-able long-term perspective, and third; that both were established hastily as a result of the same influencing fac-tors, among which false promises, authoritarianism, elitism dominated, party totalitarianism and ideological dogmatism. The paper uses the descriptive method and the usual methods of economic science. In the conclusion, the verification of the set hypotheses was stated.
