俄共再起的背景及其影響

The Comeback of the Russian Communist Party and its Political Impact

俄共於一九九三年初再度重整出發後，短短幾年內即在兩次國的選舉中取得勝利，成為俄羅斯政壇第一大黨，其領導人朱岡諾夫且是二○○○年俄國總統大選中的熱門人選。俄共勢力再起的主因乃在於共黨本身的轉型，及葉爾欽主導下的改革造成俄國政治、經濟混亂，民怨沸騰，使其有機可乘。俄共憑藉其在俄國下議院中的多數，屢屢在政策制訂上杯葛政府，然俄國憲法賦予總統的超大權力，卻使葉爾欽能在每次的政治鬥爭中取得上風。因而俄共足以影響某此政策的執行，但卻無法左右葉爾欽的行事。倘若俄共在未來取得執政黨地位，因時空環境的轉變，它也不可能恢復從前蘇聯共產黨的政策與角色。

The Communist Party of the Russian Federation formally rebuilt its organization in early 1993. Within a few short years it has won two parliamentary elections, has become the largest political party in Russia, and its leader G. Zuganov is one of the most prominent candidates for the Russian presidential election in the year of 2000. The Communist Party has reached these achievements largely owing to the transformation of the party itself, and the political and economic chaos caused by Mr. Yeltsin's reforms.Although the Communist party can influence the process of decision-making, the president's constitutional powers can always overcome communist boycotts; thus Mr. Yeltsin leads the game. Even if the Communist Party can win the power of administration in the near future, changes in the political environment will make Russian communists act differently from their predecessors.
