Klappentext zu „Understanding the Persistence of Competitive Authoritarianism in Algeria “
This book unravels the secrets behind the Algerian regime's survival and the pillars of its longevity. How did authoritarian consolidation happen, and why is it likely to continue despite Bouteflika's departure and the emergence of a new actor: the popular movement, Hirak. The author sheds light on the pillars behind the durability of Algeria's regime. The latter has demonstrated an extraordinary capacity to perpetuate itself through an array of mechanisms. It identifies Algeria's authoritarianism as a distinctly competitive and adaptable kind, which has better allowed the regime to persist in the face of all manner of change. The book analyzes Algeria's situation and the regime persistence far from the premise of a trend towards democratization. The project also contributes to a broader area of study concerned with "competitive authoritarianism," regimes that face domestic resistance, the question of what and how compels such regimes to change, the nature of their political institutions, and more.Inhaltsverzeichnis zu „Understanding the Persistence of Competitive Authoritarianism in Algeria “

Pressezitat
"The book gives a deep historical and political insight into the functioning of the authoritarian Algerian government and how it has managed to survive since independence despite huge challenges. The book is an easy read and should be a reference work on how Algeria survived the upheavals in the region." (Abdul Adil, The Muslim News, muslimnews.co.uk, December 30, 2022)
