Introduction ; 1. Theorizing the Arab Spring ; 2. Lineages of Repression ; 3. Breakdowns and Crackdowns ; 4. Post Breakdown Trajectories ; 5. Why Breakdowns Did Not Always Produce Transitions
Summary: This study is premised on the notion that subnational undemocratic regimes (SURs) within countries not only differ among each other but that they maintain different relations with the federal government, which is why they are reproduced differently. The book argues that alternative pathways of SUR continuity result first and foremost from the capacity (or lack thereof) of democratic presidents to wield power over SURs and autocrats.
