Research, ideas, and leadership for a more secure, peaceful world

The fragile yet inevitable transformation of existing types of authoritarian governance in insecure regions of the world and the overall security of subsequent liberalizing political development, labeled here as regime change security (RCS), are a major challenge that goes far beyond daily law and order. Who is best suited to deal with the long term needs of RCS?
To understand how indigenous ways of maintaining RCS may work, we should look at examples of countries that have long been going through these processes. This research offers a taxonomy of major regime change dynamics in anarchic environments. It then looks at two crucial cases, Turkey and Iran, and explores the ways in which RCS mechanisms, institutions, and practices have evolved. It concludes by presenting a model of RCS to help in understanding the dynamics of upcoming democratic transformations in anarchic regions and offers recommendations and insights for global “democratizers.”
