The Center for the Study of Democracy at UC Irvine publishes working papers on topics of empirical democratic studies. Like the Center itself, the topics may range from the problems of democratic transitions to the expansion of the democratic process in advanced industrial democracies. The series is multidisciplinary in its research approach, as well as diverse in its definition of democratization topics.

The CSD newsletters and research papers of the Center published before July 2001 are available on the CSD website at the University of California, Irvine.
