{"product_id":"transitions-from-authoritarian-rule-guillermo-odonnell-9780801831904","title":"Transitions from Authoritarian Rule: Southern Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn array of internationally noted scholars examines the process of democratization in southern Europe and Latin America. They provide new interpretations of both current and historical efforts of nations to end periods of authoritarian rule and to initiate transition to democracy, efforts that have met with widely varying degrees of success and failure. Extensive case studies of individual countries, a comparative overview, and a synthesis conclusions offer important insights for political scientists, students, and all concerned with the prospects for democracy. The historical example of Italy after Mussolini as well as the more recent cases of Greece, Portugal, Spain, and Turkey suggest factors that may make a transition relatively secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guillermo O'Donnell, Laurence Whitehead\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0801831903\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780801831904\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Johns Hopkins University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/1986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.26h x 6.02w x 0.60d","brand":"Guillermo O'Donnell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926133833983,"sku":"9780801831904","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d091de79-cdb3-4c28-9555-14c0a27e637b.jpg?v=1681081393","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/transitions-from-authoritarian-rule-guillermo-odonnell-9780801831904","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
