Rezensionen

"This innovative volume advances our understanding of variations in the quality of democracy, and of the precise international pathways involved. These pathways are traced by deploying three linked concepts - democratic anchoring, layering, and cyclicality. The project's analytical eclecticism provides a model that can be extended and generalized and that will enrich the comparative democratization literature." Laurence Whitehead, Nuffield College, Oxford, UK.

"An important study of how external actors influence democratic development, featuring a useful analytic taxonomy for understanding such influence, a telling focus on the rule of law, and well-grounded, absorbing country case studies." Thomas Carothers, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
