Course Description

Authoritarian politics concerns the political logics of authoritarian rule and state-society relations in non-democratic regimes. Special attention is directed toward the heterogeneity of authoritarianism with a comparative approach. The topics include the typology of authoritarian states, military conflicts, the ruling toolkits of the elites, social media strategies, and a range of political and economic outcomes different authoritarian states deliver. It is built upon multiple theoretical frameworks and draws empirical materials from countries in broad regions of the world.
