Far from sweeping the globe uniformly, the 'third wave of
democratization' left burgeoning republics and resilient
dictatorships in its wake. Applying more than a year of original
fieldwork in Egypt, Iran, Malaysia, and the Philippines, in this
book Jason Brownlee shows that the mixed record of recent
democratization is best deciphered through a historical and
institutional approach to authoritarian rule. Exposing the internal
organizations that structure elite conflict, Brownlee demonstrates
why the critical soft-liners needed for democratic transitions have
been dormant in Egypt and Malaysia but outspoken in Iran and the
Philippines. By establishing how ruling parties originated and why
they impede change, Brownlee illuminates the problem of
contemporary authoritarianism and informs the promotion of durable
democracy.
