The transition from communist dictatorship to multi-party democracy
has proved a long and painful process for the countries of Eastern
Europe, and has met with varying degrees of success. In Hungary,
the radical opposition was uniquely successful in fighting off
attempts by the old-guard communist elite to hijack reform
programmes, by forcing free elections and creating a multi-party
system. This volume focuses on the Hungarian experience, analysing
in detail the process of transition from dictatorship to pluralist
democracy. Some of Hungary's leading political scientists examine
issues such as the legitimation crisis of communist rule, resulting
struggles within the ruling elite and the forces behind transition.
Constitutional reform, party formation and voting behaviour at the
first free elections are also taken into account. The concluding
section places the Hungarian experience in comparative perspective,
within the context of other Central and Western European states.
