INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.
This title list is made to supply literature references to visitors of the Annual Conference on Decentralisation and Legitimacy of the Association for Law and Administration in Developing and
Transitional Countries, held in The Hague at the Institute of Social Studies on the 20th of June, 2002.
The titles are on decentralisation and legitimacy. Legitimacy is here primarily interpreted as
democracy, democratisation, and all forms of participation of the population in the political processes of the country concerned.
The titles were harvested in the WorldCatalogue, [(http://newfirstsearch.oclc.org/FSIP) visited:
06-12-02] have been altered to the fit of this list, and are presented in alphabetical-author order. Most entries have a TOC (table of content) to inform the reader on the subject, some have a small abstract serving the same purpose.
The references have been published in the period 1999 - 2002, only monographs were selected. WorldCatalogue has the possibility to make selections based on representation in libraries; we have kept that in mind while making this selection.
The Association for Law and Administration in Developing and Transitional Countries is closely related to the Van Vollenhoven Institute for Law, Governance and Development. The institute started in 1978 as merger of two collections on colonial law, administration and adat law in the former Dutch colonies. After a process of transformation and adjustment to the changing needs of research and teaching since the 1980s, the collection profile now includes a general collection on law, governance and development in developing countries, and some country and region specific collections. The countries are: Indonesia, China, South Africa, recently Mali and Ghana were added, Suriname, the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba; the regions are: North Africa (Egypt and Morocco), Southeast Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Middle East (Islamic law).

Summary: Why did the wave of democracy that swept the former Soviet Union and
Eastern Europe starting more than a decade ago develop in ways unexpected by observers who relied on existing theories of democracy? In
Postcommunism and the Theory of Democracy, four distinguished scholars conduct the first major assessment of democratization theory in light of the experience of postcommunist states. Richard Anderson, Steven Fish, Stephen Hanson, and Philip Roeder not only apply theory to practice, but using a wealth of empirical evidence, draw together the elements of existing theory into new syntheses. The authors each highlight a development in
postcommunist societies that reveals an anomaly or lacuna in existing theory. They explain why authoritarian leaders abandon authoritarianism, why democratization sometimes reverses course, how subjects become citizens by beginning to take sides in politics, how rulers become politicians by
beginning to seek popular support, and not least, how democracy becomes consolidated. Rather than converging on a single approach, each author shows how either a rationalist, institutionalist, discursive, or Weberian approach sheds light on this transformation. They conclude that the experience of postcommunist democracy demands a rethinking of existing theory.

Summary Audacious Reforms examines the creation of new political institutions in
three Latin American countries: direct elections for governors and mayors in Venezuela, radical municiplization in Bolivia, and direct election of the mayor of Buenos Aires in Argentina. Diverging from the usual incremental processes of political change, these cases marked a significant departure from traditional centralized governments. Such "audacious reforms," explains Merilee S. Grindle, reinvent the ways in which public problems are
manifested and resolved, the ways in which political actors calculate the costs and benefits of their activities, and the ways in which social groups relate to the political porcess. Grindle considers three central questions: Why would rational politicians choose to give up power? What accounts for the selection of some institutions rather than others? And how does the introduction of new institutions alter the nature of political actions? The case studies of Venezuela, Bolivia, and Argentina demonstrate that institutional invention must be understood from theoretical perspectives that stretch beyond immediate concerns about electoral gains and political support building. Broader theoretical perspectives on the definition of nation and state, the nature of political contests, the legitimacy of political systems, and the role of elites all must be considered. While past conflicts are not erased by reforms, in the new order there is often greater potential for more responsible, accountable, and democratic government.
