{"product_id":"post-communist-party-systems-herbert-kitschelt-9780521658904","title":"Post-Communist Party Systems: Competition, Representation, and Inner-Party Cooperation","description":"Post-Communist Party Systems examines democratic party competition in four postcommunist polities in the mid-1990s, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland. Legacies of precommunist rule turn out to play as much a role in accounting for differences as the institutional differences incorporated in the new democratic rules of the game. The book demonstrates various developments within the four countries with regard to different voter appeal of parties, patterns of voter representation, and dispositions to join other parties in legislative or executive alliances. The authors also present interesting avenues of comparison for broader sets of countries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Herbert Kitschelt, Zdenka Mansfeldova, Radoslaw Markowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 052165890X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521658904\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/13\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 476\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.01h x 6.04w x 1.25d","brand":"Herbert Kitschelt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43920048029951,"sku":"9780521658904","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1a915905-1dc6-4543-afb2-8b991c7bfac0.jpg?v=1680813308","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/post-communist-party-systems-herbert-kitschelt-9780521658904","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
