"Karen Guttieri and Jessica Piombo have assembled a first-rate group of authors to examine this phenomenon from both historical and functional perspectives. Their conclusions will sometimes surprise-for instance, that imposed nondemocratic regimes have proven more enduring than democratic ones-and always inform. Interim Governments is thus to be welcomed as an important addition to our understanding of how efforts at state building, democratization, and post-conflict reconstruction actually play out." -James Dobbins, Director of the International Security and Defense Policy Center, RAND Corporation"
