Strategies of Authoritarian Survival and Dissensus in Southeast Asia: Weak Men Versus Strongmen: Palgrave Series in Asia and Pacific Studies

Autor Sokphea Young
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 iul 2022
This book analyses how authoritarian rulers of Southeast Asian countries maintain their durability in office, and, in this context, explains why some movements of civil society organizations succeed while others fail to achieve their demands. It discusses the relationship between the state-society-business in the political survival context. As the first comparative analysis of strategies of regime survival across Southeast Asia, this book also provides an in-depth insight into the various opposition movements, and the behaviour of antagonistic civic and political actors in the region.

Recenzii

“Drawing on dozens of interviews and government documents, the book not only chronicles but also compares two land struggles in different provinces of Cambodia … . Strategies of Authoritarian Survival and Dissensus in Southeast Asia reaffirms the value of comparative political economy, an approach to the study of the region which has declined in prominence since the turn of the twenty-first century and deserves renewed promotion today.” (John Sidel, Pacific Affairs, Vol. 96 (1), March, 2023)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

“This book is a valuable contribution to the literature on authoritarian persistence and its relation to popular opposition and protest. With its unique comparative analysis of regimes across Southeast Asia, this book uncovers important empirical information about political leadership and state-society relations in countries that have received relatively little attention in the scholarly literature, while simultaneously providing new theoretical insights of interest to scholars, practitioners, and the general public alike.”
Teresa Wright, Chair and Professor, California State University Long Beach, USA
 
“This book offers excellent insights into complex political developments and regime durability in Southeast Asia, especially Cambodia, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Not only does the book make a contribution to the academic fields of comparative politics, political economy, and social movements, it is also well-written and accessible to anyone interested in Southeast Asian politics.”
Sorpong Peou, Professor, Ryerson University, Canada
 
“In this fascinating and timey intervention, Sokphea Young takes stock of the region's political landscape in a sobering account of the difficult path ahead. Insightful, engaging, and an urgent appeal for political change at a moment when Southeast Asia is quickly rising in global strategic and economic importance.”
