This is the first book to systematically analyse and compare all countries that were democratic in the interwar period between the two world wars.

The book examines why some interwar democracies broke down whereas others survived.

The book sheds new light on a topic question of our own time, namely the extent to which present-day democracies are fragile in the face of crisis.
