Reviews

[T]his is a useful volume for scholars of South East Asian politics who want to keep abreast of current developments in the region. It is especially useful for those scholars of comparative authoritarianism for whom the field's recent shift to structure and institutions is analytically unsatisfying...The chapters are empirically rich and conceptually nuanced...This makes the volume one that is important reading for scholars of contemporary South East Asian politics. - Dr Thomas B Pepinsky, South East Asia Research, Vol 18.
