Description
This volume brings together studies of the small number of previously established states that have retained and/or restored democracy despite - in many cases - formidable economic, social or political challenges. It seeks to establish common themes, whether or not they appear to fit a grand casual theory. It is, after all, the very adaptability of democratic systems that characterises their persistence, durability and resilience.

- enduring elite democracy in Botswana, Kenneth Good
- democracy in the Commonwealth Caribbean, Paul Sutton
- why Costa Rica remains a democracy, Lloyd Pettiford
