Party government in Central Eastern European democracies: A data collection (1990-2003)

This article provides a systematic comparative overview of party governments in 11 Central Eastern European countries. The review is based on the compilation of a crossnational data set on post-communist party governments from 1990 to 2003. The presentation of the data is organised in the same way as the party government data for western democracies presented by Woldendorp et al. in 1998. Thus, the data provide empirical grounds for further comparative research on party governments in Central Eastern European countries, as well as among Central Eastern and Western Europe.
