The End of the Regime: How Three European Dictatorships Ended

Alexander Baunov’s book explores the mechanisms behind the fall of three twentieth-century European dictatorships: Franco’s regime in Spain, Salazar’s in Portugal, and the “Black Colonels” junta in Greece. The author analyzes how these authoritarian systems came to an end, what factors contributed to their collapse, and how the transition to democracy unfolded. The work offers an in-depth political science analysis of the historical processes driving political regime transformation.
