Democracy is in vogue it seems. Everywhere in the world, the
forces opposed to democracy seem to be in retreat, and the
number of states calling themselves democracies is increas-
ing. There are exceptions, of course: parts of Africa, tortured
Burma, all over the Middle East, some aging Communist
oligarchies, a few proud holdouts in sultanates and mountain
monarchies. But they are increasingly anachronisms in the
end-of-history world. Or are they? The literature is replete
with controversy on the definition, durability, inevitably, and
universality of democracy. Into this controversy comes a new
book that takes direct aim at the literature of the past
decades and provides a badly needed comparative analysis of
some of the states in South Asia. Maya Chadda's goals are
clear and ambitious: to bring the neglected experience of
South Asia to the attention of a wider audience, in the
context of the most central debates about the nature of
democracy.
