Summary
The conclusion summarizes the main findings of the study and puts them into perspective, highlighting our contribution to the general political science scholarship. In particular, we show the importance of our findings in three main contexts: the post-Soviet countries, the post-Communist countries (including countries currently ruled by the Communist parties like China), and the single-party regimes and their legacies. We discuss the implications of our study for these countries, identifying main contributions and suggesting avenues for future research.
