Paperback. Condición: New. This volume analyzes regime politics in the developing world. By focusing on the civilian, collective actors that forge democracy and sustain it, this book moves beyond materialist arguments focusing on gross domestic product (GDP), poverty, and inequality. With case material from four continents, this volume emphasizes the decisive role played by parties and movements in forging democracy against the odds. These pivotal collectivities are consistently the key civilian collectivities that successfully mobilized for democracy, that helped forge enduring democratic institutions, and that shaped the quality of the democracies that emerged; they are the ones tasked with mobilizing along a range of social cleavages, confronting seemingly inhospitable conditions, and coordinating the process of regime change. While the presence of parties and movements alone is not sufficient to explain democracy, their absence is detrimental to enduring democratic regimes. Thus, this volume refocuses our attention on parties and movements as critical mechanisms of regime change.…

Yashar, is an analytical volume that significantly contributes to the fields of democratization, political parties, and social movements. This book explores the complex dynamics of democracy, focusing on its emergence in contexts often considered unlikely. The authors assert that political parties and movements play a pivotal role in both the establishment and erosion of political regimes. They challenge traditional structural explanations by demonstrating that the preferences and behaviours of these actors are often unpredictable and deeply rooted in historical and contextual factors.The contributors to this volume include leading scholars specialising in various regions of the developing world, providing a rich, interdisciplinary examination of the factors influencing democratic change. Central to the discourse is the argument that the evolution of social movements and political parties is contingent upon historical legacies and political choices, rather than solely on social structures. This perspective is effectively articulated in an introductory chapter by the editors and is further developed through detailed case studies from India, Southeast Asia, Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East.Overall, this volume presents a coherent and sophisticated analysis that not only updates but also expands upon the frameworks established by earlier theorists such as Dahl, Rustow, and O'Donnell and Schmitter. It is an essential read for those interested in the nuanced interplay between political movements and democratic development in diverse contexts throughout the developing world.…
