Book excerpt: '. . . a welcome addition to our stock of knowledge regarding the process of democratization. . . . the real value of the book lies in the empirical details and occasional suggestive comparisons rather than in a consistently convincing conceptual rendering of the opening pages of the new chapter in East-Central European history.' - Frank A. Kunz, Canadian Journal of Political Science 'Party Formation in East-Central Europe is an excellent book. It is encouraging that many of the articles were written by scholars who are of Eastern European origins and live in the area.' - Ann Griffiths, International Insights Party Formation in East-Central Europe is one of the first books to present detailed studies of politics in Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland and Bulgaria during the initial three years of post-communist rule.
