tolerant forms of democracy."--Laurence Whitehead, senior research
fellow at Nuffield College, University of Oxford

and practitioners around the world."--Larry Diamond, senior fellow

necessary rethink of democracy support."--Ivan Krastev, chairman of

outside the West, with a well-informed account of the political
