Making Autocrats Accountable: Interests, Priorities, and Cooperation for Regime Change Abstract In nearly all authoritarian regimes, democratization finds significant societal support and a number of organized opposition groups struggle for regime change. In some cases—such as in Iran in 1979— opposition groups are able to cooperate with one another and bring down authoritarianism. In others—such as the Assad regime in Syria—groups are not able to cooperate, and the ruler remains in place. Studies that apply cooperation theory on regimes predict that shared grievances about the current government and common interests in changing the existing regime foster cooperation among challengers. Yet, evidence suggests the contrary. This study examines the conditions under which diverse challengers, despite persistent divergence in their ideological preferences, are able to achieve a level of long-term cooperation that can transform the status quo. It uses the case studies of the Ottoman transition to constitutional monarchy (1876–1908) and the French transition to constitutional monarchy (1814–1830), paired according to the least similar systems design, in combination with network theory.

  • France and the German Question, 1945–1955
    CreswellFrance and and the Trachtenberg German Question France and the German Question, 1945–1955 ✣ What role did France play in the Cold War, and how is French policy in that conºict to be understood? For many years the prevailing as- sumption among scholars was that French policy was not very important. France, as the historian John Young points out, was “usually mentioned in Cold War histories only as an aside.” When the country was discussed at all, he notes, it was “often treated as a weak and vacillating power, obsessed with outdated ideas of a German ‘menace.’”1 And indeed scholars often explicitly argued (to quote one typical passage) that during the early Cold War period “the major obsession of French policy was defense against the German threat.” “French awareness of the Russian threat,” on the other hand, was sup- posedly “belated and reluctant.”2 The French government, it was said, was not eager in the immediate postwar period to see a Western bloc come into being to balance Soviet power in Europe; the hope instead was that France could serve as a kind of bridge between East and West.3 The basic French aim, according to this interpretation, was to keep Germany down by preserving the wartime alliance intact. Germany itself would no longer be a centralized state; the territory on the left bank of the Rhine would not even be part of Germany; the Ruhr basin, Germany’s industrial heartland, would be subject to allied control. Those goals, it was commonly assumed, were taken seriously, not just by General Charles de Gaulle, who headed the French provisional government until Jan- uary 1946, but by Georges Bidault, who served as foreign minister almost without in- terruption from 1944 through mid-1948 and was the most important ªgure in French foreign policy in the immediate post–de Gaulle period.

  • Bonn: Whither Europe-Union Or Partnership?
    1953] REVIEWS knew his deed was wrong, let him step forward. Pray let him think first, however. Or, in the alternative, let him contemplate the other side to that Platonic coin: "The best partner for dice-playing is not a just man, but a good dice-player." EDWARD DE GrLzi4t WHITIHER EUROPE-UNION OR PARTNERSHIP? By M. J. Bonn. New York: Philosophical Library, 1952. Pp. vii, 207. $3.75. IN George Bernard Shaw's Joan of Arc, Joan comes to see Charles VII. The English have occupied France, and Charles VII-a king who enjoys no one's confidence-has taken refuge at Bourges. When Joan seeks out the king, she brings nothing but her faith and her hope. She speaks and all the world mocks her. Generals, bishops, jurists all call her a madwoman until a young man, who is to become her companion in battle as well as in victory, says, "Let us trust in madmen. Look where the wise have got us." Perhaps Joan's companion was right. Perhaps the world should now be- come a little mad, put aside "wisdom" and "reason," and believe that a little hope, a little confidence, and a little faith are of more use than all pr,- cedural wisdom. At least this reviewer felt this way before and even aftkr reading Dr. Bonn's book. The author, a distinguished economist and political scientist. deals real- istically-and with many instructive parallels from the past-with the Euro- pean Defense Treaty and other measures aimed at building western solidarity. He advocates instead a system of multiple partnerships, joint institutions, and limited working agreements.

  • Hommage À Maurice Schumann Au Cours De Sa Réunion Du 15 Juin
    - 1 - Hommage à Maurice Schumann Au cours de sa réunion du 15 juin 2011, la commission a rendu hommage à son ancien président, M. Maurice Schumann, à l’occasion du centième anniversaire de sa naissance. Intervention du Professeur David Bellamy, maître de conférences en histoire contemporaine à l’université de Picardie-Jules Verne à Amiens A bien des égards, l’automne de l’année 1944 constitue dans la vie de Maurice Schumann un apogée. Il est probable qu’il dut le ressentir ainsi. La cause qu’il avait embrassée avec ferveur, auprès du général de Gaulle en juin 1940, la libération du territoire national, était en cours. Bien plus et comme il l’avait souhaité dès la signature de son engagement dans la France libre, il participait à cette libération, sur le terrain, comme combattant. Dans la matinée du 6 juin 1944, intégré au corps expéditionnaire britannique, il avait posé, enfin !, le pied sur le sol de la patrie, à Asnelles, s’emparant d’une poignée se sable qu’il avait embrassée. Ce moment de sa vie fut d’une telle intensité qu’il décida de faire de cette petite commune normande le lieu de son inhumation et c’est là qu’il repose aujourd’hui. Une semaine après son propre débarquement, il avait accueilli, sur la plage de Courseulles, son chef, le général de Gaulle, puis l’avait annoncé aux populations de Bayeux, sur la grand’ place de cette ville, avec les mots célèbres qu’il avait tant de fois répétés au micro de la BBC : « Honneur et Patrie, vous allez entendre le général de Gaulle ».
