Political openings and the transformation of authoritarian rule in the Middle East and North Africa -- Sustaining authoritarianism during the third wave of democracy -- The old authoritarianism -- The new authoritarianism -- Political openings without patronage-based privatization and single-party institutional legacies -- Transitions from the new MENA authoritarianism to democracy?
Stephen J. King considers the reasons that international and domestic efforts toward democratization have failed to take hold in the Arab world. Focusing on Egypt, Tunisia, Syria, and Algeria, he suggests that a complex set of variables characterizes authoritarian rule and helps to explain both its dynamism and its persistence.
