Since the late 1980s and the collapse of communist, military, and
race-based regimes across the world, the euphoria over democracy's
triumph has given way to the practical question of how to enhance
the viability of democratic constitutional government.
That is the subject of this book, with particular attention to
the following questions:
-- What are the strengths and weaknesses of the available models of
democratic governance and how adaptable are they to other
societies? (Joel Aberbach; Bert Rockman; Gregory S. Mahler);
-- What are the most effective mechanisms for ensuring the
accountability of public officials? (Fred W. Riggs; James L.
Sundquist);
-- How does legislative structure enhance or diminish the prospects
for democratic stabilization? (Abdo I. Baaklini);
-- What can transitional societies learn from the experience of
India, Turkey, and Russia? (T.V. Sathyamurthy; Ersin Kalaycioglu;
Erik P. Hoffmann);
-- How does the need for economic adjustment impact democractic
consolidation? (Diane Ethier);
-- How has globalization complicated the task of democratic
state-building? (Philp G. Cerny).
