Summary

How international factors interact with domestic conditions in ways that enable the persistence of authoritarianism in post-Soviet states. Several of these states are generally understudied in political science and their inclusion in this volume helps us develop a better understanding of the experiences, issues, and problems of post-communism.--, Provided by publisher
