Abstract
The Bulgarian legislature has emerged slowly from its legacy with the former Communist regime. Three distinct evolutionary periods are identified. November 1989 to June 1990 was characterised by a reformist Communist membership whose role was confined to the ‘rubber stamping’ of Communist Party measures. June 1990 to October 1991 witnessed a transitory legislative environment with an assertive opposition, a new constitution and a change in government personnel. Since October 1991 the third phase has been marked by ‘polarised pluralism’ in which a more active yet more divided legislature has witnessed a growing credibility gap with the electorate.
