"Democratization, edited by Christian W. Haerpfer, Patrick Bernhagen, Ronald F. Inglehart and ChristianWelzel, is an excellent undergraduate textbook.[...] It is divided into four parts. The first covers theories and historical perspectives. Richard Rose, the first of an impressive list of contributors, outlines variations between democratic and authoritarian states, as well as the incomplete democracies that lie between these two categories.[...] The second part of the volume focuses on various causal dimensions of democratisation the international context, economics, gender and civil society. [...] The final part of the volume is particularly useful for students studying global democratisation
