After providing a theoretical overview and discussions of study methodology, Bozoki (political science, Central European U., Hungary) and Ishiyama (political science, Truman State U.) present separate examinations of the development of those parties that are the prime inheritors of personnel and resources from the former ruling parties of Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Romania, Yugoslavia, Lithuania, and Russia. After the single-country case studies, a series of seven comparative case studies are presented, focusing on such issues as organization and ideology, party consolidation, party system institutionalization, cleavage structure, and organizational strength.
