Research on the economic origins of democracy and dictatorship has
shifted away from the impact of growth and turned toward the
question of how different patterns of growth - equal or unequal -
shape regime change. This book offers a new theory of the
historical relationship between economic modernization and the
emergence of democracy on a global scale, focusing on the effects
of land and income inequality. Contrary to most mainstream
arguments, Ben W. Ansell and David J. Samuels suggest that
democracy is more likely to emerge when rising, yet politically
disenfranchised, groups demand more influence because they have
more to lose, rather than when threats of redistribution to elite
interests are low.
