The sudden collapse of communism stimulated both the rapid
emergence of fledgling democracies and scholarly attention to the
post-communist transition. These newly democratized parliaments
have been described as parliaments in adolescence.
This book identifies six parliaments which exemplify the wide
range of developments in the new post-communist political systems,
from the stable consolidated democracies to the less stable and
more authoritarian states, within which their respective
parliaments function.
Finally the post-communist parliaments are compared with the
presumptively more established west European parliaments. This book
bridges the usual gap in research between the post-communist
parliaments and more normal democratic parliaments to develop a
common legislative research perspective on both new and established
parliaments.
This book was previously published as a special issue of the
Journal of Legislative Studies.
