"There is a vast and burgeoning literature on ‘democracy’ and ‘modernity’ and their links to ‘civilized values’, and this project became even more urgent after the events of 9/11. Much of this work presents only a partial, inevitably western-centric view. This latest volume adopts a broader, global perspective. Bringing together some of the leading theorists in the field of democracy studies, the book explores less familiar approaches; in the process, it raises and seeks to answer highly pertinent questions. An impressive and refreshing addition to the field, it is likely to appeal to researchers, students and those with a need to know what can be done differently." –Maria Holt, University of Westminster, UK "This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex socio-economic and political matrix in a Global Era. The collection of works is representative of truly transnational issues. Immigration and human trafficking, democratization for peace and security, active citizenship, role of civil society, political corruption, and ethnic diversity are some of the many issues addressed in the book. Readers will be enthralled by the richness of the collection of articles and case studies." –Hasnat Dewan, Fulbright scholar and award-winning professor of Economics, Thompson Rivers University, Canada
