Despite the spread of democratization following the Cold War's end,
all signs indicate that we are currently seeing a resurgence of
authoritarianism. Around forty percent of the world's people live
under some form of authoritarian rule, and authoritarian regimes
govern about a third of the world's countries. In Authoritarianism:
What Everyone Needs to KnowRG, Erica Frantz guides us through
today's authoritarian wave, explaining how it came to be and what
its features are. She also looks at authoritarians themselves,
focusing in particular on the techniques they use to take power,
the strategies they use to survive, and how they fall. As she
demonstrates, understanding how politics works in authoritarian
regimes and recognizing the factors that either give rise to them
or trigger their downfall, remains as important as ever. This book
paves the ways for such an understanding. Authoritarianism is a
clear and concise overview that provides readers with a context for
making sense of one of the most important-and most
worrying-developments in contemporary world politics.
