学者们将经济表现问题列为专制政权崩溃的最重要原因之一。本研究也不例外,以1981年至2008年间的160个专制政权为样本,探讨经济灾难对专制政权失败的影响。此外,本文介绍了镇压和拉拢作为政治变量,有可能调解的不利影响的经济灾难。前者保护专制统治免受群众示威等纵向威胁,后者则以精英分裂的形式应对横向威胁。从分析中可以看出,对政治自由的限制(软镇压)比侵犯个人诚信(硬镇压)或拉拢更有利于独裁者。此外,与其他分析相反,没有证据表明以准民主机构形式的拉拢可以防止政权失败。
Scholars rank problems in economic performance among the most important reasons for the collapse of autocratic regimes. This study forms no exception and explores the effect of economic misfortune on autocratic regime failure using a sample of 160 authoritarian regimes between 1981 and 2008. Moreover, this article introduces repression and co-optation as political variables which have the potential to mediate the adverse effects of economic misfortune. While the former shields authoritarian rule from vertical threats such as mass demonstrations, the latter addresses horizontal threats in the form of elite splits. As follows from the analysis, restrictions on political liberties (soft repression) serve autocrats better than infringements on personal integrity (hard repression) or co-optation. Furthermore, in contrast to other analyses, there is no evidence that co-optation in the form of quasi-democratic institutions prevents regime failure.
