Since the end of the Cold War, more and more countries feature
political regimes that are neither liberal democracies nor closed
authoritarian systems. Most research on these hybrid regimes
focuses on how elites manipulate elections to stay in office, but
in places as diverse as Bolivia, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Serbia,
Thailand, Ukraine, and Venezuela, protest in the streets has been
at least as important as elections in bringing about political
change. The Politics of Protest in Hybrid Regimes builds on
previously unpublished data and extensive fieldwork in Russia to
show how one high-profile hybrid regime manages political
competition in the workplace and in the streets. More generally,
the book develops a theory of how the nature of organizations in
society, state strategies for mobilizing supporters, and elite
competition shape political protest in hybrid regimes.
