Opis

This work assesses the 'colour revolutions' that took place in Serbia, Georgia, Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan from 2000 onwards. Apart from exploring political change in the 'coloured revolution' countries themselves, it also focuses on countries that did not experience this executive change but which may otherwise be comparable.
