Assessing Democratization: A case for qualitative approaches

Keboitse Machangana

Development, 2007, vol. 50, issue 1, 81-85

Abstract: Keboitse Machangana suggests that reform-orientated qualitative assessments led by internal stakeholders are a way forward in assessing democratization efforts, and contributing to democratization processes. She analyzes extant measures for assessing democratization and highlights major challenges. She introduces the State of Democracy assessment methodology, developed by the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance as an alternative assessment framework. Development (2007) 50, 81–85. doi:10.1057/palgrave.development.1100328
