Based on a new data-set covering 29 European and neighboring
countries, this volume shows how, Europeans view and evaluate
democracy: what are their conceptions of democracy, how do they
assess the quality of democracy in their own country, and to what
extent do they consider their country's democracy as legitimate?
The study shows that Europeans share a common view of liberal
democracy, which is complemented by elements of social and direct
democracy, which go beyond the basic liberal model. The level of
their demands in terms of democracy varies, however, considerably
across Europe and is related to their assessment of democracy: the
worse the quality of democracy in a given country, the higher the
respective demands on democracy. The analysis of the determinants
of democratic views and evaluations shows that they depend on the
political and economic (but less on the cultural) context
conditions. Comparative Politics is a series for students,
teachers, and researchers of political science that deals with
contemporary government and politics. Global in scope, books in the
series are characterised by a stress on comparative analysis and
strong methodological rigour. The series is published in
association with the European Consortium for Political Research.

Politics series is edited by Emilie van Haute, Professor of
Political Science, Universite libre de Bruxelles; Ferdinand
Muller-Rommel, Director of the Center for the Study of Democracy,
Leuphana University; and Susan Scarrow, Chair of the Department of
Political Science, University of Houston.
