"Description of regimes is coupled to the identification of problems and the search for solutions. The value of such an interactive approach consists in privileging a dynamic analysis that allows readers to participate in the debate by reflecting on a large variety of possible solutions to the problem of constituting a strong and active civil society in South Eastern Europe." - in: Studies in East European Thought, Vol. 57, Issue 2 (2005)
