Contention and Democracy in Europe, 1650-2000, first published in
2004, is an analysis of the relationship between democratization
and contentious politics that builds upon the model set forth in
the pathbreaking book, Dynamics of Contention. Using a sustained
comparison of French and British histories since 1650 or so as a
springboard for more general comparison within Europe Contention
and Democracy goes on to demonstrate that democratization occurred
as result of struggles during which (as in 19th century Britain and
France) few, if any, of the participants were self-consciously
trying to create democratic institutions. Consequently,
circumstances for democratization vary from era to era, region to
region as functions of previous history, international
environments, available models of political organization, and
predominant patterns of social relations.
