China's Democratic Future: How It Will Happen and Where It Will Lead

The Right to Rule: How States Win and Lose Legitimacy
ISBN: 9780231138727 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Popular perceptions of a state's legitimacy are inextricably bound to its ability to rule. Vast military and material reserves cannot counter the power of a citizen's belief, and the more widespread the crisis of a state's legitimacy, the greater the threat to its stability. Even such established democracies as France and India are losing their moral claims over society, while such highly illiberal states as China and Iran enjoy strong showings of public support. Through a remarkable fusion of empirical research and theory, Bruce Gilley makes clear the link between political consent and...
