title = "The History of Parliamentary Democracy in Denmark in Comparative Perspective",
abstract = "{"}In the last chapter of Part Three, 'The History of Parliamentary Democracy in Denmark in Comparative Perspective', Uffe Jakobsen takes up a comparative perspective to the history of European democratization. Adopting the recent processes of change, i.a. of transitions from the authoritarian rule to that of democracy, in Eastern Europe after 1989 as his point of reference, Jakobsen attempts to build a systematic view looking at democratization of Denmark in the nineteenth century. Curiously enough, as Jakobsen shows, similar challenges emerged in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries on both sides of the Continent. The outcome invites, in his view, a reconsideration of the supposed specificity of the types and timing of changes within the historical processes of democratization in Western Europe.{"}",
