Parliaments In Transition: The New Legislative Politics In The Former Ussr And Eastern Europe

by Thomas F. Remington

This pathbreaking book provides a cross-national exploration of legislative politics in the democratizing societies of Russia, Ukraine, the former Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. Distinguished specialists in legislative politics and area studies set the post-Soviet legislatures in the perspective of democratic and democratizing legislatures elsewhere in the world. Their contributions provide in-depth views of the new legislators' backgrounds, outlooks, parliamentary behavior, and political relations inside the legislature and in the larger political arena.
