Bell 8 (29)

The Eastern Europe Studies Centre (EESC) is delighted to present yet another issue of the newsletter The Bell.

In this issue you will find an article about the “silent protests” and the “stop-petrol” actions held in Belarus throughout the summer. Their scale and impact are being analysed by Andrej Dynko, Editor of the newspaper Nasha Niva.

In the second article, lawyer and political scientist Yuri Chausau studies the prospects of introducing proportional electoral system before the upcoming parliamentary elections. The main question that the author attempts to answer is whether such a reform would strengthen democracy in Belarus, just like the representatives of the regime try to convince.
