The Institutional Sources of Cabinet Duration in Central and Eastern Europe
The article is devoted to the analysis of sources of durability of cabinet in selected countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The author focused on those factors that in the transforming states of the region cause the cabinet to remain in office and stable governance. A few interesting aspects were chosen to illustrate the problem of minority government in these countries.
