The authors deal with comparative aspects of contemporary authoritarianism.
Authoritarian tendencies have appeared in several "old democracies"
but their main successes take place in several states which departed from
dictatorial regimes recently. The book contains case-studies of contemporary
Hungarian, Kenyan, Polish, Russian and Turkish regimes.
