How Dictatorships Work pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
This accessible volume shines a light on how autocracy really works by providing basic facts about how post-World War II dictatorships achieve, retain, and lose power. The authors present an evidence-based portrait of key features of the authoritarian landscape with newly collected data about 200 dictatorial regimes. They examine the central political processes that shape the policy choices of dictatorships and how they compel reaction from policy makers in the rest of the world. Importantly, this book explains how some dictators concentrate great power in their own hands at the expense of other members of the dictatorial elite. Dictators who can monopolize decision making in their countries cause much of the erratic, warlike behavior that disturbs the rest of the world. By providing a picture of the central processes common to dictatorships, this book puts the experience of specific countries in perspective, leading to an informed understanding of events and the likely outcome of foreign responses to autocracies.
Barbara Geddes is a professor of Political Science at University of California, Los Angeles. Her 1999 article in the Annual Review of Political Science is credited with changing the way social scientists think about dictatorships. She developed the theoretical reasons for using characteristics of the group that established the dictatorship as the basis for explaining dictatorial decisions and began the first systematic collection of data about these groups and the dictatorships they initiated. She has written extensively on regime transition and dictatorship, as well as research design in comparative politics.
先说长处:用seizure group解决内生性问题是创见,只不过seizure group本身和其他结构性因素之间的关系探讨地不充分;数据很充实,数据库应该会很有益;基本每个论点都做了定量分析。 再说缺陷:理论上几乎毫无创见,Svolik提过的东西复读一遍没什么意思;personalism index的衡量捕捉不到个人统治的要害,其中衡量chairman Mao的个人权力的曲线简直可笑;证伪军队不是上层阶级利益捍卫者的定量证据太薄弱。 个人感觉威权主义研究还是需要在威权主义体制下有生活经验和生活体悟。要不然就只会出这种让人觉着数据处理很精致,除此之外似乎带不来什么洞见的著作。

评分竟然能在出版半年后还成为豆瓣上第一个标这本书的...虽然毫不怀疑它在将来会成为Authoritarian Politics课程大纲上的常客,但因为写作战线拉得太长,一些部分已经没有那么惊喜了(实际上很多论点已经被Gandhi和Svolik提及)。个人感觉主要贡献在两点:一是用Seizure Group概念解决内生性问题;二是提出Personalism Index(但效度存疑)。
