Building democracy in societies that have known only authoritarian
rule for half a century is complicated. Taking the post-Yugoslav
region as its case study, this volume shows how success with
democratisation depends on various factors, including establishing
the rule of law, the consolidation of free media, and society's
acceptance of ethnic, religious and sexual minorities. Surveying
the seven successor states, the authors argue that Slovenia is in a
class by itself as the most successful, with Croatia and Serbia not
far behind. The other states - Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia,
Montenegro, and Kosovo - are all struggling with problems of
corruption, poverty, and unemployment. The authors treat the issue
of values as a policy problem in its own right, debating the extent
to which values have been transformed by changes in education and
the media, how churches and women's organisations have entered into
the policy debate, and whether governments have embraced a
programme designed to effect changes in values.
