How and with what effect do authoritarian regimes learn from each other? For what purpose and how successfully do they cooperate? The volume highlights that present-day autocrats pursue mainly pragmatic interests, rather than ideological missions. Consequently, the connections among authoritarian regimes have primarily defensive purposes, especially insulation against democracy promotion by the West. As a result, the authors do not foresee a major recession of democracy, as occurred with the rise of fascism during the interwar years. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of \u003cem\u003eDemocratization\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46931301204119,"sku":"9781138322332","price":14450.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138322332.webp?v=1771612355","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/authoritarian-diffusion-and-cooperation-interests-vs-ideology-9781138322332","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
