Even though the democratic decline has been deemed a global
phenomenon, the question of how it manifests itself in the
postcommunist world and how it varies across different regions with
divergent levels of democratic consolidation has not been
sufficiently addressed yet. This book tries to fill the gap and
examines the causes and nature of the deteriorating quality of
democracy in Central Europe as well as the reversal or stagnation
of democratization processes in Southeastern and Eastern Europe.
The political elite plays a key role in initiating legislative
changes that may lead to democratic backsliding. Its constant
commitment to the rule of law and to the practice of selfrestraint
in securing the independence of judiciary and the rights of
political opposition appears hence indispensable for sustainable
liberal democracy.
