This essay examines the rise of #Fascism and #NationalSocialism in post-World War I #Europe as reactions to #capitalistcrises and social movements for equality. These #authoritarian regimes capitalized on the failures of Social Democracy and the suppression of labor uprisings. Utilizing opportunistic and nationalist rhetoric, they subverted parliamentary systems and established totalitarian states aligned with capitalist interests. The essay underscores the need for historical clarity and #directdemocracy to counteract exploitative political orders. READ: https://lnkd.in/g9yv5k73

Our research fellow István Benedek has published his study ’Populist autocratization and populist electoral autocracies: towards a unified conceptual framework’ in Comparative European Politics (Q1, IF=3.1). Although the research subjects of #populism and #autocratization studies are interconnected, the full potential of combining their focuses—the dynamic elements of political systems and institutional dimensions—into a comprehensive and systematic conceptual framework remains underexploited. This study makes a stride in this direction by reviewing and connecting these areas through the concepts of populist autocratization and populist electoral #autocracies.

Democracy :Topic In *Why Nations Fail* , Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson trace the evolution of political and economic institutions around the globe and argue that nations are not destined to succeed or fail due to geography or culture, but because of the emergence of extractive or inclusive institutions within them. They write: “Extractive political institutions concentrate power in the hands of a narrow elite and place few constraints on the exercise of this power. Economic institutions are then often structured by this elite to extract resources from the rest of the society. Extractive economic institutions thus naturally accompany extractive political institutions. In fact, they must inherently depend on extractive political institutions for their survival … political institutions enable elites controlling political power to choose economic institutions with few constraints of opposing forces. They also enable the elites to structure future political institutions and their evolution.” In light of their thesis, we can see how powerful groups or institutions have long dominated Pakistan’s body politic by taking advantage of its security issues, place of religion in its national makeup and its feudal social structure. The political system that emerges from this body politic is designed to empower only the powerful and privileged and does little to foster the rule of law.
