The book compares five newly emerged democracies in Europe, South East Asia, Latin America and Africa.

Rezensionen

Van Beek and her associates have produced a major, even a seminal, volume. European Poltitical Sciences, December 2010 ... an important contribution to the study of democratisation, ... for its novel perspective as well as the scope and depth of its case studies. European Political Science 2006 All in all, the study impresses... Steffen Kaiitz, University of Chemnitz, German Politics This book fully lives up to the distinguished reputation (of its authors). The book is admirably clearly written, theoretically astute and offers interseting insights into well-established paradigms as well as original, empirically based, observations. ... Thus the book is an extremely valuable and innovative addition to the ever-growing regime transition and cosolidation literature. Daunis Auers (University of Latvia) in Political Studies Review
