This book looks at the liberalisation process in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) during the period 19871989, focusing on Gorbachevs initiative to encourage perestroika in all the fraternal regimes of CEE outside the Soviet Union. Archival materials, interviews and textual analysis identify a joint initiative 19871989 among these fraternal communist parties to perpetuate the oneparty system. For this purpose, fraternal parties were expected to follow the example of the CPSU in convening the national party conference, an allparty meeting on a similar scale to the fiveyearly congress, and yet mysteriously, one which was barely described in the Party Statutes and rarely convoked. Gorbachev made use of CEE dependence on the Soviet Union for energy supplies to ensure that at least some fraternal parties followed his line.This book will be of interest to those studying the transition process in CEE, democratisation, comparative politics more generally and students of research methods.
