Even though such a thesis is very popular in political science, it cannot be borne out in present-day policy. And even if we describe democracy as a purely institutional arrangement, it’s impossible to ignore its substantial character. It certainly includes a dynamic civil society and participatory character of political culture. Given these issues, political analysis is very difficult for all researchers, especially because of the variety of traditions and beliefs.</p>}, journal={Eastern Review}, author={Pietrzyk-Reeves, Dorota}, year={2017}, month={grudz.}, pages={27–38} }
