Books are good for something. They teach us that democracy experiments only succeed in countries with longstanding, established institutions that are adaptable to change and democracy. Democracy cannot not just be installed and expected to work immediately, if at all. Actually, only forced authoritarian control over a long period of time will allow democracy to take hold in Iraq.
