This is a thought-provoking analysis on why democracy succeeds in
some countries but not others, comparing the post-transition
experiences of two cases of contemporary democratisation: Russia
and Indonesia. Following authoritarian regimes, democracy eroded in
Russia but flourished in Indonesia - so confounding dominant
theories of democratisation that predicted the opposite outcomes
based on their levels of socioeconomic development and histories of
statehood. Identifying key behaviours and patterns of political
participation as a factor, Lussier interweaves ethnographic
interview and quantitative public opinion data to expand our
understanding on how mass political participation contributes to a
democracy's survival. The integration of both micro- and
macro-level data in a single study is one of this project's most
significant contributions, and will enhance its appeal to both
researchers and instructors.
