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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51938016592160,"sku":"NEW0415365570","price":204.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51JPnL22AxL.jpg?v=1783110823","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/post-communist-and-post-soviet-parliaments-the-initial-decade-library-of-legislative-studies-0415365570","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
