Soft cover. Zustand: As New. Summary:Over the next few decades, East Asia is likely to be the most crucial arena in the global struggle for democracy. The extraordinary economic progress achieved by many East Asian countries in recent years has greatly increased the weight and importance of the region in world affairs. It has also made developing nations elsewhere look to East Asia for models to emulate, which means that the fate of democracy there may have significant repercussions in other regions. Yet at the same time, East Asia harbors a greater diversity of political regimes than any other part of the world, ranging from the stable democracy of Japan to the entrenched Leninist systems of China, North Korea, and Vietnam.In Democracy in East Asia Larry Diamond and Marc F. Plattner bring together a distinguished group of authorities to explore the past, present, and future of democracy in this region of growing importance. The authors begin with an overview of East Asian political cultures and democracy. They analyze democracy in Japan and "soft authoritarianism" in Malaysia and Singapore. They describe the process of consolidating new democracies in South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. Looking to countries where democracy has not yet taken hold, they explore the prospects for change in China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. The volume concludes with three brief chapters by senior scholars broadly assessing the prospects for democracy in East Asia.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. xiii, 455 pages ; 24 cm. Political Culture and Democracy in Developing Countries is a prominent academic volume edited by the American political sociologist Larry Diamond and first published in 1993 by Lynne Rienner Publishers. The book is a foundational text in comparative politics, focusing on the reciprocal relationship between a society's deeply held political beliefs, values, and attitudes (political culture) and the success or failure of its democratic institutions. Core Themes & Research Questions The volume stems from a conference held at the Hoover Institution and includes a foreword by the pioneer of political culture theory, Gabriel Almond. It centers on several pivotal inquiries: • Causal Direction: To what extent does political culture act as a cause or an effect of democratic governance? • Democratic Essentials: What specific elements of a political culture—such as tolerance, trust, civility, and a commitment to civic participation—are mandatory for sustaining a democracy? • Evolutionary Tracking: How do these foundational cultural attributes develop, adapt, or degrade within a society over time.…
