Patronal Politics: Eurasian Regime Dynamics in Comparative Perspective - Problems of International Politics
Hale, Henry E. (George Washington University, Washington DC)
This book proposes a new way of understanding events throughout the world that are usually interpreted as democratization, rising authoritarianism, or revolution. Where the rule of law is weak and corruption pervasive, what may appear to be democratic or authoritarian breakthroughs are often just regular, predictable phases in longer-term cyclic dynamics - patronal politics.
