Democratic Transition And Electoral Process In Mongolia

This thesis is a case study of the transformation between democratic transitions and electoral processes. The central concern of this thesis is democratic transition, and, in particular the impact of internal and external factors on the shape and goals of democratic transition in Mongolia. The purpose here is to examine the impact of these factors on the direction of the democratic transition in Mongolia, and assess the importance of doing so.
This study has found that analyzing the influence of internal and external factors on the shape and goals of democratic transition in Mongolia is absolutely crucial in order to understand the transition process and how democracy is developed in this country.
While scholars have acknowledged the importance of studying third world country transitions, the majority of the academic literature focuses on its process and types of transition countries go through. Choosing Mongolia as a case, this thesis had discovered fascinating facts that Mongolia can be a powerful example in the Central Asian region of a consolidating democratic system.
The findings in this study are significant because this reveal a deficiency in the literature regarding transitions with democratic elections, and call for a more thorough examination of democratic development in order to improve our understanding of how Mongolia is doing in its democratic transition.
