The Emergence, Maintenance and Defeat of Dominant Party Authoritarian Regimes (DPARs)Ong, Kian M. January 2010 (has links)
<p>This thesis is an investigation into the causes behind the emergence, maintenance and defeat of dominant authoritarian party regimes (DPARs). The emergence of these regimes during certain critical junctures in a country's history is attributed to the ability of charismatic leaders to co-opt political elites using electoral instruments and incentives under the banner of a single party. The presence of institutional mechanisms that can smooth the leadership transition process, provide rewards for elites to remain in the dominant party and increase the costs of elite defections are important explanatory factors in DPAR maintenance. DPARs also employ different strategies to co-opt and divide the opposition in order to reassert their political dominance. Intra regime splits are a necessary but not sufficient condition to weaken a DPAR. Institutional reform which further weakens a DPAR and increases the probability of future elite splits is introduced when the opposition can play a veto card. The mutually reinforcing effects of elite splits and institutional reform explain the downfall of DPARs in Mexico, Taiwan, Senegal and Paraguay. The DPAR in Malaysia is at a critical juncture whereby an opposition veto which can possibly lead to institutional reform currently hangs in balance.</p> / Dissertation

A cidade imaginada: a elite empresarial carioca e a construção de projeto para a cidade do Rio de Janeiro nos anos 1990 / The city imagined: the business elite carioca and construction project for the city of Rio de Janeiro in the 1990'sRosane Cristina de Oliveira 08 July 2011 (has links)
Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro / O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar a influência da elite empresarial local nas alternativas políticas para a cidade do Rio de Janeiro ao longo dos anos 1990. A importância de compreender o papel da elite empresarial carioca na construção de um projeto político para a cidade do Rio de Janeiro está pautada no postulado de que essa elite é peça fundamental para a projeção da cidade, atuando em várias esferas de poder, entre as quais o Executivo e o Legislativo estadual e municipal. A nossa investigação baseia-se, também, no fato de que os gestores da prefeitura, ao construir um projeto para cidade do Rio de Janeiro, estiveram atentos ao empresariado local, compondo parcerias. Neste sentido, a nossa pesquisa procurou analisar os aspectos políticos e ideológicos sobre os quais se fundamentaram tais parcerias. Tal influência ocorreu de diversas formas: projetos liderados pelos empresários cariocas, cargos no executivo e criação de conselhos empresariais para a resolução de determinados problemas da cidade. / The goal of this paper is to investigate the influence of the local business elite over the political alternatives for Rio de Janeiro city in the 1990`s. It is extremely important to understand the role of the carioca business elite in the process of creating a political project to Rio de Janeiro city, due to the fact that this elite is a key element to the projection of the city, since it exerts influence over the state and municipal Executive and Legislative powers. This research is also based on the fact that the municipal managers took into consideration the local businesses, with the intention of having them as partners, when the city's political project was idealized. This way, our research aims at analyzing the ideological and political aspects which lie behind such partnerships. This influence presented itself in different forms throughout the process: projects which were led by carioca enterpreneurs, positions in the Executive power and the creation of local business counselling committes responsible for dealing with some specific problems of the city.
