    Clientelism and Communal Politics in Lebanon and Yemen

    de Daniel Corstange ...

    Clientelism and ethnic favoritism appear to go hand in hand in many diverse societies in the developing world.

    Eurasian Regime Dynamics in Comparative Perspective

    de Henry E. Hale ...
    Series series Problems of International Politics
    This book proposes a new way of understanding events throughout the world that are usually interpreted as democratization, rising authoritarianism, or revolution.

This is shown through ... Leer más

    Insights on Social, Political, Economic and Religious Change

    Edición de Bernard Haykel, Thomas Hegghammer, Stéphane Lacroix ...
    Making sense of Saudi Arabia is crucially important today.

However, the country is undergoing rapid change: its aged leadership is ceding power to a new generation, and its society, dominated by young people, is restive. Saudi Arabia has long ... Leer más

  • Russia Against the Rest

    The Post-Cold War Crisis of World Order

    de Richard Sakwa ...
    In this book Richard Sakwa provides a new analysis of the end of the Cold War and the subsequent failure to create a comprehensive and inclusive peace order in Europe. The end of the Cold War did not create a sustainable peace system. Instead, for a quarter of a century a 'cold peace' reflected the tension between cooperative and competitive behaviour. None of the fundamental problems of European ... Leer más

  • Monitoring Democracy

    When International Election Observation Works, and Why It Often Fails

    de Judith G. Kelley ...
    In recent decades, governments and NGOs--in an effort to promote democracy, freedom, fairness, and stability throughout the world--have organized teams of observers to monitor elections in a variety of countries. But when more organizations join the practice without uniform standards, are assessments reliable? When politicians nonetheless cheat and monitors must return to countries even after two ...
