Beschreibungen

This book deals with post-Cold War processes of autocratization, that is, regime change towards autocracy. While these processes are growing in number and frequency, autocratization remains a relatively understudied phenomenon, especially its most recent manifestations. In this volume, the authors offer one of the first cross-regional comparative analyses of the recent processes of regime change towards autocracy. Building on an original conceptual framework, the two authors engage in the empirical investigation of the spreading of this political syndrome, of the main forms that it takes, and of the modes through which it unfolds in countries ruled by different political regimes, with different histories and belonging to different regional contexts. The research is conducted through a mix of research techniques that include descriptive statistical analysis, Qualitative Comparative Analysis and case study. This book will be of interest to a heterogeneous readership that encompasses thebroader community of scholars, analysts, observers, journalists, and practitioners interested in political development and regime change in different geographical areas.<p></p>

Lays conceptual and empirical foundations for the debate over autocratization that catalyses increasing attention Offers a cross-regional analysis focusing on the modalities of autocratization Focuses exclusively on recent processes of autocratization
“When democratization left room to processes of autocratization, no author was ready to develop a new conceptual framework for analysing those processes, to single out the historical and geographical trends and to investigate the modalities of change. In this much welcome book the authors do that for the first time with insight and depth, making this book a compulsory careful reading for every comparatist.” (L. Morlino, Professor of Political Science, LUISS G. Carli, Rome, Italy, Former President, International Political Science Association (IPSA))
