This groundbreaking book offers a fresh perspective on the consolidation of democratic regimes, making significant theoretical and empirical contributions to the study of democratic consolidation, legislative organization, and public opinion. The author, Simone Wegmann, delves into the role of legislatures as the primary representatives of both winners and losers in democratic elections. Through meticulous empirical analysis, Wegmann reveals that the degree of policy-making power held by opposition players varies significantly across different countries. Drawing upon survey data from esteemed institutions such as the CSES, ESS, and LAPOP, Wegmann conducts a comprehensive analysis of over 50 legislatures worldwide, examining the specific rights granted to opposition players during the policy-making process. By highlighting the curial role of legislatures in democratic settings, Wegmann underscores the importance of considering institutions in the assessment of democratic consolidation. This insightful work will captivate scholars of comparative politics, particularly those engaged in research related to legislative organization, democratic consolidation, and public opinion. Its groundbreaking insights and comprehensive analysis provide valuable contributions to the field.
