In the late seventeenth century, in the wake of Britain s Glorious Revolution, when Britain revolted against the spendthrift and autocratic Stuart dynasty, the British government that was formed after William and Mary assumed the throne adopted a new approach to debt. Voting budgets in parliament a representative institution ensured that the people as a whole were liable for the obligations incurred by their government.

The result is that the structure of power under the military regime remains autocratic and accountable only to itself and rests on the denial and repression of most fundamental rights.

Many autocratic rulers in Zimbabwe, Myanmar, Belarus, and elsewhere still lead the old fashioned way. They combine fear with corruption to maintain kleptocracies dominated by the big man and his coterie.

The last thing impoverished Moldovans need is an autocratic, unaccountable government that lacks sufficient imagination to find a way to revive the country. And just about the last thing the EU needs is an influx of hundreds of thousands of migrants fleeing poverty, political repression, and despair in Moldova and other countries of the former Soviet Union.

The most visible symptom is corruption, but the cause is intrinsic to autocratic rule. Typically, first generation revolutionaries have a strong emotional and ideological attachment to certain ideals, however misguided they may be.

Turkey is more dynamic and energetic than Russia, and its economy certainly is faring much better, but both regimes are overestimating the strength of their position and underestimating the cost of their autocratic turn.

The legitimacy of their autocratic systems is almost entirely dependent on their success in delivering rapid economic growth. When growth falters, or goes into reverse, there is no one to blame but the system.

China may be unique in many ways, but its one party rule is hardly exceptional. Indeed, its political order suffers from the same self destructive dynamics that have sent countless autocratic regimes to their graves.

If the outcomes of democratic elections are not respected, people will seek other means to make themselves heard. Morsi s autocratic inclinations may have damaged democracy taking him out in a coup deals it a mortal blow.

One reason is that governments have become as skillful at using the Internet and modern communications technology as activists. Autocratic governments use it to track down protest and opposition leaders, as we have recently seen in Ukraine.

This is where democratic India and South Africa have the upper hand over China or Russia. Countries that have fallen into the grip of autocratic leaders for example, Argentina and Turkey are also increasingly at a disadvantage.

That means giving decision making power in fundamental matters to the General Assembly and ending once and for all the Organization's oligarchic and, very often, autocratic practices, which diminish its authority in the eyes of the world.

Under the Bolsheviks, Russia built the Soviet Union and a sphere of influence that encompassed most of Central and Eastern Europe. And now, under Putin s similarly autocratic regime, Russia plans to create, over time, a vast Eurasian Union.

Despite calls by the Russian public for reform from modernization of the military and decrepit and corrupt legal institutions to diversification of the economy beyond natural resource extraction and the military industrial complex Putin has stuck to his autocratic guns.

The restoration of central authority has been going on for some time. Indeed, today the center almost completely dictates Russian internal politics and economics, though not within a totalitarian or autocratic framework, but in a democratic and market based fashion.

And, in supporting the Western model of parliamentariansm, we are on the side of Georgia, not Russia. It is strange that Saakashvili, a graduate of Columbia Law School, fails to see the disparity between his own democratic rhetoric and autocratic actions.

The Special Rapporteur considers these violations to be particularly serious since they reflect an autocratic spirit incompatible with a process of transition to democracy, and call in serious question the future of the eventual State based on the rule of law.

Last June, the Slovaks evicted the government that brought the country out of the international isolation and economic malaise that it had suffered under the autocratic regime of Vladimir Meciar. Mikulas Dzurinda, whose reforms provided the country with growth and economic stability, was replaced by Robert Fico, a leftist who, having forged an alliance with Meciar and a neo fascist party, has also adopted a worrisomely populist tone.

Every group with an interest in the country s future including the government, domestic opposition groups, and those in exile should be invited to participate in official talks. And, in order to create a level playing field, it is essential to recognize that the Arab League (which has already given Syria s seat to the Muslim Brotherhood controlled SNC) represents the autocratic states that are encouraging sectarianism and extremism in Syria.

And many of these Muslims further say that their disagreement with the United States is that it, in the past and still in the present, has sided with autocratic rulers in the Muslim world in order to promote America's short term interests.

He has chosen to respond by tightening his autocratic grip, with the body that appoints prosecutors and judges set to become a mere appendage of the justice ministry. His supporters have been launching smear campaigns against Gülenists that are reminiscent of Gülenist tactics.

As the Arab Spring demonstrated, the Internet can quickly transform local incidents into national flashpoints turning the new connectivity into a potential source of political instability and turmoil. But that has been the case only in countries ruled by highly unpopular autocratic regimes.

Others, notably in Israel and Saudi Arabia, are disgusted by what they see as American weakness. Even Russian President Vladimir Putin, the autocratic leader of a crumbling second rate power, manages to put on a good show compared to America s tarnished president.

The department heads and oversight committees that meet to evaluate programming seldom dictate content, but merely pass their complaints and recommendations down to programming heads. The top down hierarchy is autocratic and arbitrary lower levels have little collaborative input and no right of appeal.

Democracy is, after all, more than mere voting. Since the Middle East's autocratic regimes destroyed their liberal oppositions, in many countries radical Islamists represent the only dissent, feeding on widespread resentment of corrupt regimes, opposition to American policies, and popular fears of modernization and globalization.

Nepal s earlier experiments with democratic governance were not very successful democratically elected governments (in the late 1950 s and the 1990 s) were unceremoniously replaced by prolonged autocratic rule. So, leaving responsibility solely to political leaders and policymakers this time would be a grave mistake.

Since autocratic regimes in the Middle East left little room for free expression, the mosque emerged as the only place where people could freely congregate. Religious groups responded to this opportunity, emerging first as social welfare agencies, and then becoming the equivalent of local politicians.

Alas, given their histories of autocratic rule, giant leaps forward to full blown democracy are unlikely. Though steps toward democracy are possible, when the euphoria of the moment passes, political contenders will realize that, if only in self defense, they must restrict their opponents freedoms.

Part of America s reluctance to deal with Islamists reflected concern over the reaction of autocratic regimes, some of which are long time allies. This fear proved not only unwarranted, but also counterproductive, for it has not stopped the march of the Islamists in the Arab Middle East.

As Paul Collier of Oxford University has pointed out, the preponderance of dictatorships and autocratic kingdoms in the ranks of the largest oil exporters indicates that where these huge economic rents exist, pressures are created against economic diversification and democratization. Most terrorism, ultimately, is oil funded.

The most lethal strain of leadership degeneration is escalating predation among the ruling elites. The most visible symptom is corruption, but the cause is intrinsic to autocratic rule. Typically, first generation revolutionaries have a strong emotional and ideological attachment to certain ideals, however misguided they may be.
