Abstract: This article focuses on the basic conflict of a self-transforming post-Communist society. Two phenomena are described. The first comprises the ways in which people cope with this conflict during the transformation period; the five most frequent reactions are opportunistic, materialistic, defensive, victimlike, and mobilization. The second phenomenon is the more general phenomenon of the development dynamics that characterize the basic conflict. The conflict between the third (nongovernmental) sector and the government in Slovakia is presented as an example of these dynamics.
