Democracy and Socialism in Sandinista NicaraguaLynne Rienner Publishers, 1993 - 172 pages The authors convincingly argue that the democratic tradition and practice that was emerging in Socialist Nicaragua could well have served as a model for other Third World states. After showing why participating democracy didn't triumph, they conclude with an assessment of the 1990 elections and their impact on the future of democracy in Nicaragua.
