The Rise and Fall of Arab Presidents for Life exposes for the first time the origins and dynamics of a governmental system that largely defined the Arab Middle East in the twentieth century. Presidents who rule for life have been a feature of the Arab world since independence. In the 1980's their regimes increasingly resembled monarchies as presidents took up residence in palaces and made every effort to ensure their sons would succeed them. Roger Owen explores the main features of the prototypical Arab monarchical regime: its household; its inner circle of corrupt cronies; and its attempts to create a popular legitimacy based on economic success, a manipulated constitution, managed elections, and information suppression. Why has the Arab world suffered such a concentration of permanent presidential government? Though post-Soviet Central Asia has also known monarchical presidencies, Owen argues that a significant reason is the ?Arab demonstration effect,? whereby close ties across the Arab world have enabled ruling families to share management strategies and assistance. But this effect also explains why these presidencies all came under the same pressure to reform or go. Owen discusses the huge popular opposition the presidential systems engendered during the Arab Spring, and the political change that ensued, while also delineating the challenges the Arab revolutions face across the Middle East and North Africa. 606 $aAuthoritarianism$zArab countries 606 $aAuthoritarianism$zMiddle East 606 $aMonarchy$zArab countries 606 $aMonarchy$zMiddle East 606 $aPresidents$zArab countries$xHistory 606 $aPresidents$zMiddle East$xHistory 607 $aArab countries$xKings and rulers 607 $aArab countries$xPolitics and government$y1945- 607 $aMiddle East$xKings and rulers 607 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government$y1945- 615 0$aAuthoritarianism 615 0$aAuthoritarianism 615 0$aMonarchy 615 0$aMonarchy 615 0$aPresidents$xHistory. 615 0$aPresidents$xHistory. 676 $a352.230917/4927 700 $aOwen$b Roger$f1935-$0128340 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791936303321 996 $aRise and fall of arab presidents for life$91326743 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02872nas 2200697-a 450 001 996215849603316 005 20240413025321.0 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2080542-1 035 $a(CKB)991042726061518 035 $a(CONSER)---76643956- 035 $a(EXLCZ)99991042726061518 100 $a20761029a19749999 -f- - 101 0 $aeng 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aEconomic and social survey of Asia and the Pacific /$fUnited Nations 210 $aBangkok $cUnited Nations 215 $a1 online resource 311 08$aPrint version: Economic and social survey of Asia and the Pacific / 0252-5704 (DLC) 76643956 (OCoLC)2538563 531 $aECONOMIC AND SOCIAL SURVEY OF ASIA & THE PACIFIC 531 $aECONOMIC & SOCIAL SURVEY OF ASIA & THE PACIFIC 606 $aEconomic history$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00901974 606 $aSocial conditions$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01919811 606 $aEconomic development$zAsia$2ltcsh 606 $aFinance$zAsia$2ltcsh 606 $aSocial conditions$zAsia$2ltcsh 607 $aAsia$xEconomic conditions$y1945-$vPeriodicals 607 $aAsia$xSocial conditions$vPeriodicals 607 $aPacific Area$xEconomic conditions$vPeriodicals 607 $aPacific Area$xSocial conditions$vPeriodicals 607 $aAsie$xConditions économiques$y1945-$vPériodiques 607 $aAsie$xConditions sociales$vPériodiques 607 $aPacifique, Région du$xConditions économiques$vPériodiques 607 $aPacifique, Région du$xConditions sociales$vPériodiques 607 $aAsia$2fast$1https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJxMpyjKQ9Jtm3jkjPBgKd 607 $aPacific Area$2fast 607 $aPacific Area$xEconomic conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aPacific Area$xSocial conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aPacific Area$xEconomic conditions$xStatistics$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aAsia$xEconomic conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aAsia$xSocial conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aAsia$xEconomic conditions$vStatistics$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aEast Asia$xEconomic conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aEast Asia$xSocial conditions$vPeriodicals$2nli 607 $aEast Asia$xEconomic conditions$xStatistics$vPeriodicals$2nli 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 608 $aPeriodicals.$2lcgft 615 7$aEconomic history. 615 7$aSocial conditions 615 7$aEconomic development 615 7$aFinance 615 7$aSocial conditions 676 $a300 s 676 $a330.95/042 712 02$aUnited Nations.$bEconomic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific. 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a996215849603316 920 $aexl_impl conversion 996 $aEconomic and social survey of Asia and the Pacific$9885433 997 $aUNISA
