Rise of Democracy

Description

Little over 200 years ago, a quarter of a century of warfare with an 'outlaw state' brought the great powers of Europe to their knees. That state was the revolutionary democracy of France. Since then, there has been a remarkable transformation in the way democracy is understood and valued ? today, it is the non-democractic states that are seen as rogue regimes. Now, Christopher Hobson explores democracy?s remarkable rise from obscurity to centre stage in contemporary international relations.
