Incoherency and inconstancy of legislation on parties and elections in post-communist Romania

Rezumat: The paper aims to explore the norms that have regulated, over two and a half decades, the founding of political parties and the mechanisms by which we elect our representatives and militate for the necessity of harmonizing and unifying the procedures after which all the elections are organized into an electoral code. It should corroborate the provisions of electoral laws (for local, parliamentary, MEPs elections, the election of the President of Romania, the law of the referendum, etc.) with other laws that have an impact on elections (the law of political parties, their funding, public administration, etc.), bringing more transparency, professionalism and predictability in the organization of elections.
