Abstract
This paper tries to obtain a simple picture of several aspects of the mode structure in relativistic non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Its pedagogical focus is on the relation between long-wavelength perturbation modes of the causal M\"{u}ller-Israel-Stewart (MIS) theory and those of the traditional Eckart theory. Principally, this issue was clarified in a series of papers by Hiscock and Lindblom (see [8-10]). Here, I put together some essential features which do not require the entire formalism of the complete theory.
