Krátky popis
An engrossing analysis of the pseudo-democratic methods employed by
despots around the world to retain control Contrary to what is
commonly believed, authoritarian leaders who agree to hold
elections are generally able to remain in power longer than
autocrats who refuse to allow the populace to vote. In this
engaging and provocative book, Nic Cheeseman and Brian Klaas expose
the limitations of national elections as a means of promoting
democratization, and reveal the six essential strategies that
dictators use to undermine the electoral process in order to
guarantee victory for themselves. Based on their firsthand
experiences as election watchers and their hundreds of interviews
with presidents, prime ministers, diplomats, election officials,
and conspirators, Cheeseman and Klaas document instances of
election rigging from Argentina to Zimbabwe, including notable
examples from Brazil, India, Nigeria, Russia, and the United
States-touching on the 2016 election.This eye-opening study offers
a sobering overview of corrupted professional politics, while
providing fertile intellectual ground for the development of new
solutions for protecting democracy from authoritarian subversion.
