Описание: This book examines the structure of political power amongst elites inside Saudi Arabia and how they might cope with the very serious challenge posed by succession.
Why has democracy in Colombia and Venezuela evolved in very different directions? In Precarious Democracies, Ana Maria Bejarano provides a comparative historical analysis of how the democratic regimes in these two countries have diverged, following similar transitions from authoritarian rule to democracy in the late 1950s.
Rather than focusing on resource-driven explanations, such as the role of oil in Venezuela and coffee in Colombia, or on short-term elite choices and calculations, Bejarano argues that democratic development in Colombia and Venezuela is best understood from a vantage point that privileges political history, especially the history of institutional evolution. The book makes the case that a comparative historical institutional framework—focused both on institutional legacies from the distant past (such as the state and political parties) and on those from more recent critical junctures (the foundational pacts)—provides the best lens to account for the divergent trajectories followed by democratic regimes in Colombia and Venezuela in the second half of the twentieth century.

Описание: It's All About Preserving the Power of the House of Saud
Religious extremism and oppression of women over the past forty years support a single goal-preserving the power of the House of Saud.
Take a deep dive behind the veils and walls of one of the most secretive countries in the world. Few people have first-hand knowledge of who lives, suffers, and wields power in Saudi Arabia. Behind the Kingdom's Veil is a unique and personal portrait of a country critical to our future.
Become an eyewitness to the inner workings of two Saudi Arabias-new and traditional. Author Susanne Koelbl reveals the not-so-obvious facts of Saudi Arabia's history, politics and customs. An award-winning journalist and military and foreign correspondent for the German news magazine Der Spiegel, Koelbl helps us understand the intricate and often hidden power relations within the kingdom.
Chapter-by-chapter the black box that is Saudi Arabia opens. The author has traveled to the kingdom for years and recently lived in Riyadh during the most dramatic changes since the country's founding. She has long cultivated relationships on every level of Saudi society and is equally at ease with ultra-conservative Wahhabi preachers, oppositionists, and women from all walks of life.
Share Koelbl's experiences:
Have breakfast with Royal Highnesses, meet Osama bin Laden's bomb-making trainer, and enter the palaces of secret service chiefs and diplomatic legends.
Listen to intimate conversations with women about their homes as prison, contrasted by newly offered freedoms.
Get to know journalist Jamal Khashoggi who was murdered and brutally dismembered at the order of the current regime.
See an in-depth portrait of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) and the contradiction between the liberalization of Saudi society and its ruthless oppression of dissenters.
If you have read books such as Karen Elliott House's On Saudi Arabia or Robert Lacey's Inside the Kingdom, Behind the Kingdom's Veil is your next read.

Описание:
Since World War II the democratic systems adopted by states emerging from colonial rule have in some cases been abandoned and in others suspended or transformed. Two questions arise: Can democracy succeed in newly independent states dominated by communal cleavages? If so, what adjustments are necessary in Western models of democracy? Karl von Vorys contributes new answers by examining the political development of Malaysia, a country which has experimented with changes in the democratic model.
He surveys the conditions under which democracy was established in Malaysia, considering the compromises made with communal groups. Particular attention is paid to the reconstruction of the political system after the race riots of May 1969, which the author observed at first hand. Originally published in 1975. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
