OverviewThe essence of democratic power lies in the capacity to protect individual freedom while organising the necessary coercion associated with any form of government. Yet, as the authors of this book maintain, developing coercion in order to protect freedom, and containing coercion in order to further protect freedom is an arduous task, and one that faces any democratic Leviathan. The aim of this book is to explore this paradox, and to analyse the intricate balance of freedom and coercion in developing states. In so doing, it considers the legal and institutional conditions under which coercion and violence are admitted and/or permitted, and how these conditions should be organised in order to preserve and develop freedom as far as possible.
