This book is the result of my PhD dissertation that began in Florence and continued in Brussels. I am thankful to the Universit libre de Bruxelles and the Istituto Italiano di Scienze Umane (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa) for giving me the freedom and opportunity to achieve my research project. In particular, I would like to thank two people who made possible the realization of this work. First of all, I am indebted to Professor Leonardo Morlino for his trust, support and kindness, for his precious teachings on conducting research in political science and for introducing me to the field of democratization studies. I am thankful to Professor Jean-Michel De Waele, for showing me what the passion for research means, for the advice during my work on Central and Eastern Europe and for all his support of my work and life in Brussels.
