What impact has EU membership had on party politics in Central and Eastern Europe? Although there is an emerging body of literature on the Europeanization of political parties, most of these accounts focus exclusively on Western Europe. Drawing on a range of qualitative and quantitative approaches including detailed studies of party programmes and manifestos, analysis of the media, semi-structured interviews and expert surveys, this collection provides not just conceptually informed, but also empirically rooted analyses of party politics in Central and Eastern Europe during the first four years of EU membership. In particular, the contributions assess the impact of EU membership on parties’ internal balance of power, the use of European issues in inter-party competition, the role of transnational party federations and the broader role the EU plays in party politics. The findings not only shed light on the impact of EU membership on party organization and programmes, they also inform broader debates concerning the dynamics, fluidity and motors of party politics in Central and Eastern Europe. This book was based on a special issue of Journal of Communist Studies and Transition Politics.

Si l'effondrement des régimes communistes a permis aux peuples de l'Europe centrale-orientale de recouvrer leur identité européenne, il a aussi favorisé la résurgence d'anciens conflits ethniques et culturels propres à la région danubienne. Le problème des minorités figure en bonne place parmi les causes de la dissolution de la monarchie austro-hongroise. Il est aussi largement responsable de ses mauvais rapports inter-étatiques de la période entre les deux guerres. Les politiques adoptées envers les nationalités après 1945 n'ont rien fait pour arranger la situation même si elles ont eu "l'avantage" plus que douteux de "simplifier" les cartes ethniques ou linguistiques de la région. Sous les rubriques "le poids du passé", "la tentation de l'indépendance", "une coexistence impossible", et "en vue d'une solution", ce volume examine la question des minorités en Europe centrale, du point de vue de l'histoire et de l'actualité. Il analyse les solutions envisagées dans le passé et au présent, de l'empire des Habsbourgs et de la Société des Nations à la CSCE. Il traite du mouvement à l'indépendance dans les deux Etats fédérés sous le communisme; la Tchécoslovaquie et la Yougoslavie. Il s'interroge sur les racines du contentieux minoritaire et sur la spécificité de la région centre-européenne. Enfin, les collaborateurs de ce volume posent les jalons possibles d'une solution future, à la fois difficile et nécessaire.
