This major book analyzes recent events in Eastern Europe and Latin America, focusing on transitions to democracy and market-oriented economic reforms.

This 1993 book assesses differing experiences of the transition to democracy in the countries of Southern Europe, Latin America and Eastern Europe. The most successful reforms, the authors argue, have been those agreed upon through a process of democratic negotiation rather than the 'big bang' approach which by passes democratic institutions.

Sustainable Democracy identifies the principal political and economic choices confronting new democracies in Southern and Eastern Europe and South America. The scientists explore the conditions under which democracy is likely to generate desirable and lasting objectives.
