Test a hypothesis about Hungary’s transition towards democracy using a theory – either modernization, or diffusion, and relate it to one or more episodes of democratization in Hungary. Identify both the topic and the hypothesis and write about observable implications on that hypothesis. Explain what you’d expect to find. Write about theoretical alternatives to the hypothesis. Who might disagree and why? What kind of evidence will be needed to rebut the arguments with those that disagree and what has already been written on the topic. Discuss what sources you will use to conduct your research. Note which ones you have already required and what else you might need to acquire
