There is much speculation about whether democracy is still advancing around the world and the influence that leading authoritarian or semi-authoritarian regimes such as Russia are starting to have on the trends. This collection assesses global trends in democratisation, reviews the condition of international democracy promotion and enquires into whether serious competition in the form of autocracy promotion is now a major possibility. The influence of international politics on national political regimes is explored in more detail for Russia's resistance to democracy promotion and Russian influence on regimes in Central Asia in particular, along with an Indian perspective on India's reluctance to push for democracy abroad and concerns that democracy promotion itself should be considered more critically if it undermines democratisation in foreign aid-dependent states. The book concludes by briefly addressing the potential significance of the 2011 'Arab spring' for these themes. This book was published as a special issue of Contemporary Politics.
This volume inquires into the working mechanisms, the inner logic,
and the durability of authoritarian rule in Arab countries. Written
by leading American, European, and Arab experts, the collected
essays explore the ongoing political dynamics of the region and
show how Arab regimes retain power despite ongoing transformations
on regional, national, and international levels and in societal,
political, and economic spheres.
