Post-Soviet Region, Authoritarian Stability, and Autocracy Promotion: Limits to the European Union’s External Governance

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This cumulative thesis consists of six single contributions: five independent essays and an introductory chapter. All of the conributions have been published or accepted for publication. The overarching scope of these essays is to analyze different factors accounting for the stability of post-Soviet authoritarian regimes and the obstacles, which Western democracy promoters can face when dealing with autocrats. The starting point for these enquiries has been the striking inability of Western democracies and in particular of the European Union to encourage and to assist political transformation in the majority of the post-Soviet republics.
