近年来,出现了大量关于民主国家中的地方专制政权的文献。在一些国家,尽管在国家一级实现了政治民主化,但当地的威权飞地依然存在。更耐人寻味的是,在国家层面民主化的背景下,出现了新的国家以下专制政权。最后,学者们指出,在国家之间和国家内部,地方威权政权的持久性存在相当大的差异。这篇文章将考察为什么印尼的地方威权政权没有出现。可以说,地方精英难以集中控制地方经济;选民的高度经济自主权;以及印尼分散的单一国家僵化的制度框架,阻碍了世界第三大民主国家持久的地方威权政权的崛起。作为第一批关于去中心化的单一国家中的次国家威权政权的研究之一,这篇文章涉及并向更广泛的关于次国家威权政权的文献提供信息。
In recent years, a sizeable literature on subnational authoritarian regimes in democracies has emerged. In some countries local authoritarian enclaves have persisted despite the democratization of politics at the national level. Even more intriguing, new subnational authoritarian regimes have emerged in the context of national level democratization. Finally, scholars have noted that there is considerable variance in subnational authoritarian regime durability between and within countries. This article will examine why subnational authoritarian regimes havenotemerged in Indonesia. Arguably, the difficulties of subnational elites to concentrate control over local economies; the high economic autonomy of voters; and the rigid institutional framework of Indonesia’s decentralized unitary state have inhibited the rise of durable subnational authoritarian regimes in the world’s third largest democracy. One of the first studies on subnational authoritarian regimes in a decentralized unitary state, the article engages and informs the broader literature on subnational authoritarian regimes.
