democratic transition
Definition(s)
- Democratic transition is the process of changing, without major violence, from a nondemocratic regime to a democratic one. It can be distinguished from other paths to democratization that involve higher levels of violent conflict: “revolution,” as occurred in late eighteenth-century France, and “foreign intervention,” such as that undertaken by American and allied troops in Western Europe and Japan at the end of World War II (1949–1945).
