This book examines three cases of democratic transitions by
self-transformation of the non-democratic regimes in Southern
Europe-the Spanish reforma pactada-ruptura pactada of 1976-77, the
Greek "Markezinis experiment" of 1973, and the Turkish democratic
transition of 1983-in a comparative perspective. The author argues
that a democratic transition initiated by the regime elites is, in
contrast to widely held assumptions and notwithstanding some
reservations on whether democracy can be (re-)introduced by
non-democrats, worth viewing as a "window of opportunity" for
democratisation. It is up to the democratic counter-elites to
respond to it, using the civil society and the international factor
as allies to achieve their goal of acquiring more concessions from
the regime.
