Development and Democracy: What Have We Learned and How?
ISBN: 9780415252959 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It raises new questions about the role of social classes in democratization, and points to the importance of including the nature of the state as a factor in the study of democratization. A further important finding is that countries with mixed legal systems correlate less positively with democracy than do countries with more...

Democratic Revolutions : Asia and Eastern Europe
ISBN: 9780415304153 / Angielski / Twarda / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In theorizing peaceful popular uprisings against dictatorships and comparing them across Asia and Eastern Europe, Democratic Revolutions revives a much-neglected concept. Despite enormous differences between Asia and Eastern Europe, there are striking similarities between the peaceful, spontaneous, urban-based and cross-class democratic uprisings...
