Regional Economic Voting

Beschreibung

This book examines the effect of economic conditions on election results in five post-communist countries - Russia, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic - in the first decade of post-communist elections. It is the first book length study of economic voting outside of established democracies, as well as one of the few comparative studies of voting in post-communist countries generally. The study relies on an original database composed of regional level economic, demographic, and electoral data. The analysis features comparative assessment of the findings and focused case study analyses.
