Creating Local Democracy in Iran

Beschreibung

Empirically rich and theoretically informed, this book is an innovative analysis of how local government in Iran's cities and towns undermines democratization and consolidates the Islamist electoral authoritarian regime. It uses original data to deepen our understandings of comparative politics, economic development, and democratization.
