"A very important contribution to the study of the comparative history of Europe, and therefore I fully recommend its publication.--Mgr. Juraj Marusiak, PhD. Institute of Political Science, public research institution, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava, Slovak Republic This collection of essays provides not only fascinating insights into the political workings of these two small states, but of the workings of politics in the larger Iberian / Slavic context. Highly recommended.--Dr. David Reichardt, International Relations, Webster University, Saint-Louis, Missouri This comparative study by Zuzana Poláčková and Peter C. van Duin, a collection of essays, is a revelation, especially for students of European authoritarian and totalitarian regimes, and, furthermore, anybody interested in European history.--Josette Baer, Professor, UZH University of Zurich This book gives proof to Cicero's dictum: ""Historia magistra vitae est""--without knowledge of the past we cannot build a sustainable future. Thanks to the authors for this great contribution to knowledge! --Lucia Mokrá, Professor of International Law, Comenius University, Bratislava"
