Contention and Democracy in Europe, 16502000 by Charles Tilly
This book is an analysis of the relationship between democratization and contentious politics that builds upon the model set forth in the pathbreaking book, Dynamics of Contention. The book shows how similar recurrent casual mechanisms in different combinations, sequences, and initial conditions produced contrasting trajectories toward and away from democracy.

'… Tilly is to be congratulated for his brave grasp of a vast sociological literature that illuminates many important historical details. His treatment of the vital role played by the Low Countries in the history of democracy in Europe is especially good.' The Times Higher Education Supplement
