• Sommario/riassunto: From 1998 to 2005, six elections took place in postcommunist Europe that had the surprising outcome of empowering the opposition and defeating authoritarian incumbents or their designated successors. Valerie J. Bunce and Sharon L. Wolchik compare these unexpected electoral breakthroughs. They draw three conclusions. First, the opposition was victorious because of the hard and creative work of a transnational network composed of local opposition and civil society groups, members of the international democracy assistance community and graduates of successful electoral challenges to authoritarian rule in other countries. Second, the remarkable run of these upset elections reflected the ability of this network to diffuse an ensemble of innovative electoral strategies across state boundaries. Finally, elections can serve as a powerful mechanism for democratic change. This is especially the case when civil society is strong, the transfer of political power is through constitutional means, and opposition leaders win with small mandates.

• Sommario/riassunto: Relationship has significance only when it is a process of self-revelation - 17 July 1949 Where there is authority there can be no discovery of something new. Relationship based on an idea cannot be a self-revealing process. Self-knowledge is understood, uncovered and its process revealed through relationship. Is it possible to love without the interference of the mind? When the mind becomes supreme, all-important, then there can be no affection. Q: What is that thinking that must come to an end? What do you mean by thinking and thought?
