"Democracies in Danger" compiles refined research by a group of distinguished global scholars, proposing practical ideas for improving the functioning of new democracies. This valuable contribution is essential reading for both academics and practitioners, according to Richard Snyder from Brown University.

Former presidents and prime ministers of recently democratized countries gathered with top academics and experts in global democratization at the third General Assembly of the Club de Madrid. They convened to determine the fate of these new democracies in regions like Latin America (including Brazil and Chile), Africa (such as Nigeria and Ghana), Asia (e.g., Iraq, Indonesia, Pakistan), and Europe (for instance, Spain and Poland). The discussions centered on preventing these nations from being mired in crises stemming from religious and ethnic conflicts, the role of security forces such as the army, police, and intelligence, and how power is shared in presidential and semi-presidential systems.

The meeting resulted in a comprehensive vision and a set of analyses and solutions for the current global hot topics. You will find these insights in the pages of this book, which may serve as a fundamental resource for political discussions among scholars in both the East and West.
