Network of Democracy Research Institutes - Worth Reading
10:31 - By RC13 Webmaster
June 2, 2014 Dear Colleagues, This issue of Worth Reading features the “Democracy Works” project, a joint initiative of three members of the Network of Democracy Research Institutes—the Centre for Development and Enterprise (South Africa), the Legatum Institute (United Kingdom), and the Centre for Policy Research (India)—and the Instituto de Estudos do Trabalho e Sociedade (Brazil). The Center for International Private Enterprise partially funded this project and its Executive Director, John Sullivan, served as a senior advisor. The project examines “the democratic alternative from the South” as a counterargument to developmental authoritarianism and examines several key dimensions of these countries’ development, including their democratic achievements and the advantages their democratic systems provide to combat corruption. It also explains the critical need for these democracies to pursue further policy reform.

The Research Committee on Democratization on a Comparative Perspective of IPSA - RC 13 seeks to support and encourage research in the area of democratization in any/every country of the world. It is also interested in measuring and evaluating processes of democratization in particular cases and in a general comparative perspective, both from the point of view of individual states and societies and as a global process.
