A while back, Edward Luttwak explained to us how to stage a coup. Julian Waller focuses on the next step: how authoritarian regimes are built and maintained.
We discuss:
* Authoritarian regimes as the historical norm
* Why military juntas don’t last and party states do
* Autocracies: Iran, North Korea, and the Papacy
* How the Kremlin has reacted to the Wagner mutiny
* What a “pacted transition” looks like in Venezuela
* Why the US shouldn’t worry about authoritarianism
