IRI’s Lindsay Lloyd Looks at Europe’s Role in Democracy Promotion

Washington, DC – Lindsay Lloyd, Director of IRI’s Europe programs, is featured in the recent edition of the International Journal (Volume 65 Issue 3 Summer 2010 Democracy Assistance).

In his article, European approaches to democracy promotion, Lloyd surveys the scope of democracy promotion activities in Europe, with an emphasis on two areas in which Europe’s approach has been distinct: The party foundation model developed in Germany and used with modifications across the European Union, and the unique role of the European Union itself as a transnational source of funding and support.

The International Journal is the scholarly publication of the Canadian International Council.
