Autocracies not only resist the global spread of democracy but are sources of autocratic influence and pressure. This book presents a conceptual model to understand, assess, and explain the promotion and diffusion of authoritarian elements.Employing a cross-regional approach, leading experts empirically test the concept of authoritarian gravity centers (AGCs), defined as "regimes that constitute a force of attraction and contagion for countries in geopolitical proximity." With an analysis extending across Latin America, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Asia, these AGCs are shown to be effective as active promoters (push) or as neutral sources of attraction (pull). The authors contend that the influence of exogenous factors, along with international and regional contexts for the transformation of regime types, is vital to understanding and analyzing the transmission of autocratic institutional settings, ideas, norms, procedures, and practices, thus explaining the regional clustering of autocracies. It is the regional context in which external actors can influence authoritarian processes most effectively.Authoritarian Gravity Centers is a vibrant and comprehensive contribution to the growing field of autocratization, which will be of great interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of comparative area studies, illiberalism, international politics, and studies of democracy.

The Routledge Handbook on the European Neighbourhood Policy provides a comprehensive overview of the EU’s most important foreign policy instrument, provided by leading experts in the field. Coherently structured and adopting a multidisciplinary approach, this handbook covers the most important themes, developments and dynamics in the EU’s neighbourhood policy framework through a series of cutting-edge contributions. With chapters from a substantial number of scholars who have been influential in shaping the study of the ENP, this handbook serves to encourage debates which will hopefully produce more conceptual as well as neighbourhood-specific perspectives leading to enriching future studies on the EU’s policies towards its neighbourhood.It will be a key reference point both for advanced-level students, scholars and professionals developing knowledge in the fields of EU/European Studies, European Foreign Policy Analysis, Area studies, EU law, and more broadly in political economy, political science, comparative politics and international relations.

Dieses Buch bietet eine umfassende interdisziplinäre Einführung in die geographischen und politischen Besonderheiten der Arabischen Halbinsel im Kontext aktueller Megatrends wie Klimakrise, Migration und geopolitische Verwerfungen. Die Arabische Halbinsel ist ein Knotenpunkt der Debatte und selbst ein wesentlicher Akteur.Es beleuchtet die Rolle der Region im Übergang in ein Post-Öl-Zeitalter und analysiert infrastrukturelle Großprojekte, sportliche Großveranstaltungen sowie visionäre Entwicklungspläne. Dabei berücksichtigt es die historischen Entwicklungslinien, ordnet Umbrüche ein und beleuchtet Themen wie dynastische Herrschaftsstrukturen, Anpassungsstrategien in Zeiten der Energiewende, Klimapolitik, Digitalisierung, die Konstruktion von Identitäten, Migration, Arbeitsmarktfragen und die Diversifizierung der Wirtschaft. Dabei wird die Region nicht als homogene Einheit betrachtet, sondern in die zahlreichen ökonomischen, politischen und kulturellen Verflechtungen mit der weiteren MENA-Region sowie globalen Weltregionen eingebettet.Das erste deutschsprachige Buch dieser Art vereint die vielstimmige und hochkompetente Forschung der deutschsprachigen Wissenschaft zur Arabischen Halbinsel. Es richtet sich an Forscher, Wissenschaftler und Fachleute aus den Bereichen Geographie, Politikwissenschaften und Nahoststudien sowie an allgemein an der Region interessierten Laien. Es bietet wertvolle Einblicke in die komplexen Verflechtungen der Region mit dem Nahen Osten, Nordafrika und darüber hinaus. Leser*innen werden durch dieses Werk ein tiefgehendes Verständnis für die dynamischen Entwicklungen auf der Arabischen Halbinsel gewinnen und ihre Expertise in transregionalen Studien erweitern.
