The sudden and dramatic democratization of Eastern Europe during
1989-90 was something that had not been predicted by political
scientists. This text is a response to those events, in that it
seeks to provide some theoretical explanations for the process of
democratization in Eastern Europe and compare that experience with
the democratic transitions experienced in other parts of the world.
The contributions focus on the causal factors of democratization
and are organized into three main sections. In the first, the
process of democratization is analyzed from the domestic
perspective of the countries concerned and this approach includes
the investigation of long-term structural changes and historical
factors. In the second, attention is focused on the struggles of
social and political structures and on the emergence of multi-party
and new electoral systems. The final part investigates how far
democratization was influenced by external factors and considers in
particular the role of reform in the Soviet Union under Gorbachev
and the appeal of Western social, political and economic systems.
