"Traub operates as a scientist, cracking open the notion of democracy to see what it consists of, examining why it works in some places but not in others."--Kirkus Reviews

"Traub's discussion of  'democracy promotion' in foreign policy is more nuanced and more intelligently ambivalent than most recent books on the topic."--Booklist
