This book examines contemporary militant democracies in
post-communist states in the European Union. Examining, through
case studies, their broader relevance to political, legal, and
social structures, this book looks in revealing detail at the
struggles between these democratic and anti-democratic actors that
share similar historical experiences of contentious politics,
communism, and political transformation. It importantly unravels
the tension between them, determining which are already
authoritarian, and which are teetering on the brink of an
anti-democratic breakthrough. Analysing regimes' continuance
trajectories to capture how and what shaped the neo-militant
aspects of democracies (neomilitancy) over time, the book accounts
for why particular post-communist European neo-militant democracies
emerge while others decline or transform into quasi-militant
democracies despite transformation, how they differ from each
other, what brings about the differences and similarities between
them, and how and why they change over time. With right-wing
populist parties coming to power on the back of fears associated
with economic, social, and cultural globalisation and the misuse of
state authorities to strengthen protective measures against threats
to democratic institutions, the book represents a timely and
important contribution. This book will be of key interest to
scholars and students of Post-Soviet/Communist/East European
Studies, Democratic Backsliding, European and Comparative Politics,
Nationalism and Ethnic Conflict, Democracy and Dictatorship, Public
Comparative Constitutional Law, Human Rights Law and Political
Theory.
