The New Mediterranean Democracies

Regime Transition in Spain, Greece and Portugal
Herausgeber: Pridham, Geoffrey

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This volume, first published in 1984, discusses the viability of applying the 'Mediterranean model' to three countries that were transitioning to democracy, - Spain, Greece and Portugal - combining both comparative and national case-study approaches. In particular, Spain, Greece and Portugal offer comparable examples of the problems of establishing new democratic systems within relatively unstable and economically less developed environments. This title applies different theories of regime transition to the countries in question. This volume will be of interest to students of politics.
