| Description: |
An explanation of how competing elites in Eastern Europe are determining what kind of governments the countries in the region end up with, stable or unstable, authoritarian or democratic. |
| Synopsis: |
Changing configurations of national elites are shaping the prospects for democracy in the countries of postcommunist Eastern Europe. In several countries (Serbia, Bulgaria, Russia) there are unchecked power struggles between elites, with regimes oscillating between democratic and authoritarian tendencies. In other countries (Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic) restrained elite competitions are being institutionalized and are leading to stable democratic regimes. These and other outcomes are analyzed for the region as a whole. |
