You’d really enjoy the book “The Democratic Coup D’Etat.” It looks at societies that had revolutions then installed democracy, starting with Portugal and moving to the US and several others, and tries to draw a through-line and find the common elements.

Focused on democratic turnarounds so its adjacent to your curiosity - but a great, enlightening read.
