New Mediterranean Democracies

<p>This volume first published in 1984 discusses the viability of applying the ‘Mediterranean model’ to three countries that were transitioning to democracy – Spain Greece and Portugal – combining both comparative and national case-study approaches. In particular Spain Greece and Portugal offer comparable examples of the problems of establishing new democratic systems within relatively unstable and economically less developed environments. </p><p>This title applies different theories of regime transition to the countries in question. This volume will be of interest to students of politics.</p>
