This is the first truly international collaboration drawing attention to the problems of democratic consolidation across the Southern regions of the world. Nine case studies-three each from Africa, Latin America, and Asia-shed light on the contemporary challenges faced by democratizing nations, mostly from the perspective of emerging theorists working in their home countries.

They show that there are neither Northern, nor Southern, nor African, Latin American, nor Asian 'models' of democracy, ready to be replicated elsewhere."-Albrecht Schnabel, senior fellow, Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces
