Fighting for Political Freedom: Comparative Studies of the Legal Complex and Political Liberalism

Oñati International Series in Law and Society

by Terence C. Halliday (Editor), David Nelken (Series Editor), Rosemary Hunter (Series Editor)

That is the case for nations that have never enjoyed a liberal political society, for nations that have advanced towards and then retreated from political liberalism, for nations that have recently shifted from authoritarian to liberal political systems, and for mature democracies facing terrorism and domestic conflict.
