This volume offers a thorough empirical analysis of the experiences
of the left-wing parties in post-communist states and assesses
their prospects for the future.The volume examines the fortunes of
the political left in selected post-communist countries: Russia,
Lithuania, Hungary, Poland, Slovenia and Romania. Regardless of
their individual experiences, they all face similar challenges
relating to their authoritarian past. These challenges include
building a civil society and combating an under-developed party
system and a mercurial electorate, combined with the political and
social pressures associated with the transformation to a market
economy. Six country studies all address how the left-wing parties
have returned to the political stage and discuss their prospects
for the future. The volume finds that the left has been a
resilient, and generally underestimated, force in post-communist
states aided by a unique combination of history, geography,
commerce and social/cultural values. This book will be of interest
to students and scholars as well as policy practitioners with
responsibility for post-communist regions.
