Upgrading authoritarianism in the Arab world

Steven Heydemann

4.9/5 (16985 ratings)

Description:Authoritarianism in the Arab world is not what it used to be. Indeed, it might well be stronger, more flexible, and more resilient than ever, despite the best efforts of the United States, its European Union partners, and Arab democrats to bring about sustained and systematic political reform over the past two decades. While U.S. conceptions of Arab authoritarianism and U.S. strategies for promoting democratic reform have remained largely unchanged during this period, Arab regimes have not stood still. They have adapted by reorganizing strategies of governance to adjust to new global, regional, and domestic circumstances. Autocrats have not simply fallen back on coercion to fend off pressures for change -- through repression remains a visible and potent element in the arsenal of Arab governments. Regimes have turned instead to a process that can best be described as "authoritarian upgrading."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
