After the fall of the communist regimes in East central Europe, also the new democracies in the region were included into the comparative research of party membership showing important differences and specifics next to the traditional democratic states. The aim of our article is to analyse the contemporary situation in party membership development in East Central Europe. As the analytical framework for the discussion we use the political participation models. Next to the party membership itself we analyse also the related issues such as party-state relations development, overparticisation and alternatives that might revitalise the political communication between the state and the citizen." . .
