Democracy Delayed: Obstacles in Political Transition
This collection of articles, compiled by Democracy Reporting International (DRI) and Institute for European Policy EUROPEUM, responds to requests made by some Arab reformers to deepen their knowledge of how political change in Eastern Europe unfolded. Rather than focussing on the successful transitions, it presents case studies which recall the difficulties, pitfalls and political missteps which jeopardised these countries’ transitions and even caused some of them to fail.
