| The Project on Political Transformation
and the Electoral Process in Post-Communist Europe, based in the Department
of Government at the University of
Essex, UK, is part of the ESRC research programme ‘One
Europe or Several?’.
The principal aim of the project is to explain
the role of electoral systems in the process of democratisation in post-communist
Europe. The investigation will focus on eight core countries (Bulgaria,
the Czech Republic, Hungary,
Poland,
Romania,
Russia,
Slovakia
and Ukraine), with a comprehensive set
of 19 countries included for certain aspects of quantitative analysis.
This website is part of the dissemination strategy
of the project and it will be an on-line database of election results and
electorally-relevant laws from throughout Eastern Europe. A big part of
it is the result of a joint
project with the International Foundation
for Electoral Systems and the Association
of Central and East European Election Officials.
