ISBN: 9780202306001 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 329 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Countries with a long democratic tradition, such as the United States, Belgium, Britain, and Italy, have all experienced a combination of headline-grabbing scandals and smaller-scale...

Are those who struggled for change destined to be disappointed by the slow pace of transformation? Which mechanisms are activated and deactivated during the rise and fall of democratization? This...
