The Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) project, a groundbreaking initiative, has revolutionized the conceptualization and measurement of democracy, resulting in a comprehensive and disaggregated data set that is extensively utilized by researchers, activists, and governments worldwide. In Why Democracies Develop and Decline, this invaluable data is leveraged to provide a comprehensive overview and rigorous empirical analysis of the factors that contribute to democratization and democratic decline. The book delves into economic, social, institutional, geographic, and international factors, offering a thorough examination of the complex dynamics that shape democratic processes. As the most authoritative and comprehensive empirical analysis of the causes of democratization and reversals, this volume offers a valuable contribution to the field. Moreover, it presents a comprehensive theoretical framework that sheds light on the mechanisms and processes underlying democratic development. Spanning from the French Revolution to the present, each chapter in the book leverages the specialized expertise of its authors, yet their sustained collaboration lends the book an unusually unified approach and a coherent theory and narrative. This comprehensive and insightful work is a must-read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of democracy and its challenges in the contemporary world.
