Description:
While there has been extensive research into the “third-wave” democracies and many scholars have addressed the weight of these countries’ political culture within the democratization process, to date little research has been carried out with a view to produce a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between the political and civic participation patterns of the Eastern people and their attempt to adopt a democratic political system. The aim of this essay is to evaluate to which degree the political institutions and action models that have been proposed for adoption in the aftermath of the Romanian 1989 revolution were consistent with the political culture of the Romanian society.
