This work analyses the politics of electoral reform in eight post communist states including Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Russia and Ukraine. By exploring the multiple factors that shaped the design of electoral institutions during the first ten years of post communist transition, it accounts for an important element of the post communist reform process and illuminates general features of institutional design in post transition states.
