  • Authoritarian Politics and the Outcome of Nonviolent Uprisings
    Authoritarian Politics and the Outcome of Nonviolent Uprisings Jonathan Sutton Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy National Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies/Te Ao o Rongomaraeroa University of Otago/Te Whare Wānanga o Otāgo July 2018 Abstract This thesis examines how the internal dynamics of authoritarian regimes influence the outcome of mass nonviolent uprisings. Although research on civil resistance has identified several factors explaining why campaigns succeed or fail in overthrowing autocratic rulers, to date these accounts have largely neglected the characteristics of the regimes themselves, thus limiting our ability to understand why some break down while others remain cohesive in the face of nonviolent protests. This thesis sets out to address this gap by exploring how power struggles between autocrats and their elite allies influence regime cohesion in the face of civil resistance. I argue that the degeneration of power-sharing at the elite level into personal autocracy, where the autocrat has consolidated individual control over the regime, increases the likelihood that the regime will break down in response to civil resistance, as dissatisfied members of the ruling elite become willing to support an alternative to the status quo. In contrast, under conditions of power-sharing, elites are better able to guarantee their interests, thus giving them a greater stake in regime survival and increasing regime cohesion in response to civil resistance. Due to the methodological challenges involved in studying authoritarian regimes, this thesis uses a mixed methods approach, drawing on both quantitative and qualitative data and methods to maximise the breadth of evidence that can be used, balance the weaknesses of using either approach in isolation, and gain a more complete understanding of the connection between authoritarian politics and nonviolent uprisings.

  • Cambodia: Defense Strategic Review 2002
    Defense Strategic Review 2002 On behalf of the Royal Government, I would like to express my most sincere congratulation for the successful creation of this Defense Strategic Review. It reflects the determination of the Ministry of National Defense and the High Command Headquarters to implement the Royal Government’s defense policy more successfully. I fully believe that this Defense Strategic Review 2002 will be an effective instrument for the successful implementation of the Royal Government’s reform policy, particularly the reform of the Armed Forces. It demonstrates the efforts made by the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces in building its reputation internationally. It also represents Cambodia’s commitment in promoting transparency and building confidence in security matters with all nations in the region. I totally support the measures and recommendations laid down by this document and request that it becomes widely understood within the RCAF and that it be released publicly in national and international circles. Hun Sen Prime Minister Foreword The establishment of a realistic defense policy has inevitably encountered difficulties, but what is infinitely more difficult is the implementation of this policy to achieve ultimate success. This has been to experience to date regarding the implementation of the principles of the White Paper 2000. The Defense Strategic Review 2002 contains further guidelines for H.E. General Tea Banh Senior Minister fulfilling the roles and tasks of the Co-Minister of National Defense Royal Cambodian Armed Forces (RCAF) productively and according to the current and future security environments. The Outlook has been developed based on studies, research and analyses on the evolution of the security situation and results already achieved in military reform.
