I am looking for a good book or website about how dictatorships end, especially the peaceful transitions of power (e.g., Franco in Spain). Any suggestions?

I cannot think of a single dictatorship that ended with a peaceful transfer of power. The non-violent exchange of power is what distinguishes a demorcacy from a dictatorship. So finding a book about specific dictatorships and peaceful transitions of power seems hard. I would suggest looking into political science or philisophical works to address those topics.
