Why, in times of crisis, do some of these regimes break down while others weather the storm? This is the puzzle addressed in Crisis in Autocratic Regimes. Taking a long-term perspective, the authors focus not on sudden shocks and ruptures, but instead on gradual processes of disintegration as they unfold over time.AuthoritarianismCase studiesMilitary governmentCase studiesCrisesPolitical aspectsCase studiesAuthoritarianismMilitary governmentCrisesPolitical aspects320.53Gerschewski JohannesStefes Christoph H.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796370603321Crisis in autocratic regimes3739543UNINA
