Democratic institutions in the post-Cold War era have come to be
seen as the only legitimate forms of governance. But the
longstanding legacy and frequent incidence of military rule over
the past half century continue to threaten newly instituted
democratic regimes. The disintegration of order and government in
many societies in recent years, under the pressures of violent
conflict and internal war, poses even more intractable obstacles to
the institutionalization of stable democracy. The contributors to
this volume explore the challenges of establishing democratic
accountability and control over the military and other security
establishments, including non-state armed formations, in countries
which have either been the victims of authoritarian military rule
or wracked by violent internal conflict. They examine both
successful democratic transitions and failed ones in a wide range
of countries, and the possible role of regional interventions and
institutions.
