Democracy, defined as liberal pluralism, is under stress worldwide. The book provide a range of perspectives on the study of democracy under stress. The authors, scholars of democratic theory and democracy in the Central and Eastern Europe, highlight the potential of different approaches - from comparative meta-assessment using indices and survey data, to case studies focused on understanding context and causal processes - for a better grasp of the loci of the stress. The volume is also an invitation for scholars to redirect their attention to the Central and Eastern Europe, which offers an opportunity to deepen our understanding of democracy.
