Research Abstract |
This resarch project treated the rise of a dominant party regime and constitutional dynamics in the former Soviet states. One of the most important findings is that, under competitieve authoritarianism like the former Soviet countries, the central government needs to rally middle and lower elites around a single party for establishing a dominant party.This argument is demonstrated by the Russian and Ukrainian cases. While in Russia a dominant party building was successful, the Ukrainian authority has failed to establish a dominant party. This project also attempted to compare post-soviet dominant party regime with the Chinese communist party and the Indian National Congress, which led to a novel typology of dominant parties; regime-building dominanat party and regime-adapting dominant party.
