Philosophical inertia
Nature
An unwillingness to jettison old concepts and modes of thought in the face of utterly changed circumstances.
Incidence
The dissolution of the USSR and the termination of the Cold War created circumstances to which institutions on both sides of the former Iron Curtain were unable to respond because of the philosophical inertia of their policy makers.
