Table of ContentsReviews"""The literature on authoritarianism has witnessed a remarkable renaissance over the last ten to fifteen years and few scholars can claim a more fundamental impact than Andreas Schedler... Schedler's new book, The Politics of Uncertainty, presents a comprehensive framing of his theoretical insights and a wide-ranging empirical exploration of the electoral dynamics within autocracies... Schedler also calls on scholars of autocratic politics to focus more deeply on the role of citizen beliefs, to improve the available cross-national data on autocratic elections, and to investigate the many historical examples of manipulated elections prior to the 1970s. Such scholars would do well to embrace Schedler's theoretical insights on autocracy and to build on the many suggestive and intriguing empirical findings in this book."" -- The Review of Politics" The literature on authoritarianism has witnessed a remarkable renaissance over the last ten to fifteen years and few scholars can claim a more fundamental impact than Andreas Schedler...
