Anchoring Third Wave Democracies: Prospects and Problems for U.S. Policy

    ISD, 1998

What role should the United States play in promoting and consolidating democracy around the world? The answer is not self-evident. Many nations have chosen a democratic path since the end of the Cold War, but democratic gains have frequently remained fragile. Americans debate not only whether to lend support to the expansion of democracy, but also how best to do so: through government action or private initiative, through incentives or disincentives, and so on. Catharin Dalpino . . . is highly qualified to contribute to the discussion of these issues. . . . she was Deputy Assistant Secretary of State in the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor during the first Clinton administration. -- Casimir A. Yost, Director, Institute for the Study of Diplomacy
