Legislators are entrusted with key parliamentary functions and are
important figures in the decision-making process. Their behaviour
as political elites is as much responsible for the failures and
successes of the new democracies as their institutional designs and
constitutional reforms. This book provides a comparative
examination of representative elites and their role in democratic
development in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). It
argues that as the drivers of the transformation process in CEE,
individual and collective parliamentary actors matter. The authors
provide an in-depth analysis of representatives from eleven
national parliaments and explore country-specific features of
recruitment and representation. They draw on an integrated dataset
of parliamentary elites for individual, party family, and
parliamentary variables over the 20 years following the collapse of
Communism and develop a common framework for the analysis of
variations in democratisation and political professionalisation
between parliaments and political parties/party families across
CEE. This unique volume will be of interest to students and
scholars of comparative politics, elite research, post-communist
politics, democratisation, legislative studies, and parliamentary
representation.
