Developments in Central and East European Politics 3

East and Central Europe has experienced dramatic changes since the collapse of communism. This volume brings together specially commissioned chapters by leading authorities to provide a systematic assessment of the continuing evolution of politics and governance across a highly diverse region. As well as chapters on the major countries, there are cross-cutting assessments of constitutional issues, executive leadership, parties and elections and public policy, and a conclusion analysing patterns of democratization in a broader comparative context.
