How do dictatorships justify their rule and with what effects? This
and similar questions guide the contributions to this edited
volume. Despite the recent resurgence of political science
scholarship on autocratic resilience, many questions remain
unanswered about the role of legitimation in contemporary
non-democracies and its relationship with neighbouring concepts,
like ideology, censorship, and consent. The overarching thesis of
this book is that autocratic legitimation has causal influence on
numerous outcomes of interest in authoritarian politics. These
outcomes include regime resilience, challenger-state interactions,
the procedures and operations of elections, social service
provision, and the texture of everyday life in autocracies.
Researchers of autocratic politics will benefit from the rich
contributions of this volume. The chapters in this book were
originally published in a special issue of Contemporary Politics.
