Description

Today a general mood of pessimism surrounds Western efforts to strengthen elections and democracy abroad.

If elections are often deeply flawed or even broken in many countries around the world, can anything be done to fix them?

To counter the prevailing ethos, Pippa Norris presents new evidence for why programs of international electoral assistance work.

She evaluates the effectiveness of several practical remedies, including efforts designed to reform electoral laws, strengthen women's representation, build effective electoral management bodies, promote balanced campaign communications, regulate political money, and improve voter registration.

Pippa Norris argues that it would be a tragedy to undermine progress by withdrawing from international engagement.

Instead, the international community needs to learn the lessons of what works best to strengthen electoral integrity, to focus activities and resources upon the most effective programs, and to innovate after a quarter century of efforts to strengthen electoral integrity.
