Abstract:

Liberal systemic theory is built on the assumption that the system’s dominant configuration is a Kantian confederation of major powers. In addition to being a democratic cluster, the liberal core is also a capitalist club. This article pushes systemic and socialization theory forward by introducing the mechanism of economic competition as an important driver of socialization. The article develops a theory of system-level competition, arguing that it is a distinct and co-equal mechanism of socialization to the established mechanisms of persuasion, inducement, and coercion. The article proposes

Abstract:

Motivation: There is growing awareness that a new model of capitalism is emerging. The 2008–2009 Global Financial Crisis was a catalyst for redefining the role of the state in the economy, and as a result state involvement in the economy has been on the rise since then. We can also observe changes in political situation: democracy has been backsliding globally, authoritarian, and populist tendencies are growing. In some countries, those two tendencies are present, and as a result the illiberal model of state capitalism emerged. In recent years, in Poland, state involvement in the economy was g

Abstract:

Theories of the state, its functions, limits, and legitimacy have been overwhelmingly “liberal” in the past few decades, in a very broad sense of the term. Such theories are inherently open to a diversity of genders, sexual orientations, and ways of living together because they place equal freedom and the right to prosper according to one’s own ideas front and centre. Illiberal political thinking is of a completely different stock. This article focuses on the role of gender and sexuality in such approaches. Both gender and sexuality are pivotal for illiberalism’s defence of an order that is su

Abstract:

This article examines the problematic phenomenon of political naming through conceptual history. It is evident that illiberal is an ambiguous term and determining what it means is challenging, not to mention the political aspects of the name itself. We claim that naming is a political act par excellence and test our hypothesis by examining Viktor Orbán’s Băile Tuşnad speeches between 2014 and 2019 and the annual State of the Nation speeches between 2015 and 2020. We claim that even Orbán has difficulties in naming his political system. Moreover, we link naming to discussions concerning democra

Abstract:

One of the main characteristics of today’s democratic societies is their pluralism. As a result, liberal political philosophers often claim that the state should remain neutral with respect to different conceptions of the good. Legal and social policies should be acceptable to everyone regardless of their culture, their religion or their comprehensive moral views. One might think that this commitment to neutrality should be especially pronounced in urban centres, with their culturally diverse populations. However, there are a large number of laws and policies adopted at the municipal level tha

This Article draws upon, but reworks, John Rawls’ framework from Political Liberalism to determine the degree of educational autonomy that illiberal perfectionist religious groups ought to enjoy in a liberal state. I start by arguing that Rawls mistakenly concludes that political liberalism flatly cannot accommodate Perfectionists, and that his misstep is attributable to two errors: (1) Rawls utilizes an overly restrictive “political conception of the person” in determining who participates in the original position, and (2) Rawls overlooks the possibility of a “federalist” basic political stru

Recent appraisals of Indonesia’s political regime identify a deterioration of democratic quality, captured by a plethora of concepts such as democratic backsliding, democratic decline, and democratic regression. This deterioration compels scholars to conclude that Indonesia, in its current state, is an illiberal democracy, effectively displacing earlier optimism that Indonesian democracy will eventually be consolidated. This article engages the emerging literature on democratic decline and the rise of illiberal democracy in Indonesia by identifying a key source of its illiberal features. It ma

Abstract:

Abstract“Illiberalism” has assumed an invigorated if unanticipated significance in the 21st century. Aspects of illiberalism populate not only states long known as indifferent to such principles as personal liberty, human equality and the rule of law but have expanded in “liberal” democracies as their rulers employ purportedly “illiberal” practices more frequently than in the recent past. Indeed, the term “illiberal” seems to have lost its negative aura in the context of state action.

In recent years, illiberal leaders have become increasingly influential on the global stage. This paper examines the international behavior of such leaders. Using the cases of Hungary under Viktor Orbán and Israel under Benjamin Netanyahu, we demonstrate that illiberal leaders prioritize domestic agendas designed to maintain their power above all else. While they may exhibit disruptive behavior in the international arena on issues peripheral to their core domestic interests, they tend to eventually compromise in these areas.

It is argued that the tension takes a specific form in language rights claims made by national groups that are not illiberal.

The main focus of András Sajó’s book is the relation between constitutional and illiberal democracy and the origins of the latter’s popularity. The author describes the populist technique of “ruling by cheating” by showing – on the example of Poland and Hungary among others – how populists use liberal democratic concepts in order to underpin their legitimacy as well as to strengthen their power, build their own elites, take over autonomous institutions and discriminate against minorities. Another source of populism’s success is the crisis of Western democracy, reflected both in adopting populi

Abstract:

In this article, after recalling the historicity of the French ‘State-in-Majesty’ and its current politico-administrative regime (section 2), we will assess the French case against Pollitt and Bouckaert’s model and demonstrate how nowadays France corresponds to a hybridized Neo-Weberian State (section 3). Then, section 4 will demonstrate how the never-ending triple French State reform develops as a specific and multilevel interplay of the ‘five Ms’. Turning to the upgraded definition of the NWS as an ‘omega’ for our turbulent times, section 5 will defend the thesis that the robust, resilient F

Abstract:

This article analyses the development and consolidation of an illiberal (or shadow), economy and its connection to political projects in Serbia and Kosovo. Here, some comparative remarks are made over the form of economy and its political connections and implications. In spiteof methodological problems with sources being scarce or of varying quality, the phenomenon ofilliberal economy and its coupling with political projects is too important to be neglected byresearchers. To some extent ’soft sources’ have been accepted here, where hard evidence is lacking.The article argues that the considera

Abstract:

How can a tolerant, liberal political culture tolerate the presence of only conditionally tolerant illiberal sub-cultures while remaining true to its principles of tolerance? The problem falls within the intersection of two developments in the thinking of two of the leading anglophone philosophers of the last half-century, Bernard Williams and John Rawls. Rawls, particularly, struggled with the problem of how a liberal society might stably survive the clash of plural sub-cultures that a liberal society – unless it is oppressively coercive – must itself foster and allow to flourish. And he sepa

Abstract:

This study analyzes the rising support of Fidesz, a national-conservative political party that declared Hungary an illiberal democratic state in 2014. Although objectives of Fidesz are in opposition with the core values of the European Union (EU), Fidesz has succeeded in re-elections for four consecutive terms with overwhelming approval ratings until the 2022 general election. Despite the Fidesz Party’s high approval ratings, evidence shows that many Hungarian patrons favor democratic principles engraved in the EU rules and norms. This seeming contradiction is the result of the public’s growin

Abstract:

In the past few years, a number of civil society coalitions have emerged in the illiberal city-state of Singapore. They are the unintended result of a controlled process of liberalization which was initiated by the government in the 1990s in response to growing demands for participation. In particular, the internet has contributed to a more assertive, independent and better organized civil society, which can be seen as a significant step in the process of political change in the city-state.

Abstract:

Abstract The emerging literature on illiberalisms offers a framework for detecting whether or not a special Hungarian illiberalism has been unfolding. Over the last 12 years, Hungary’s former liberal constitutionalist nature has been changed to illiberal constitutionalism. This transformation of the constitutional system recently culminated with the fourth consecutive electoral victory of Viktor Orbán in April 2022. Nevertheless, the possible ideological nature of Orbán’s regime has been understudied so far. Drawing on some newly published literature on illiberalisms, I claim that changes in e

This study examines how the People’s Republic of China’s advance of its economic and other objectives both supports, and benefits from the challenges by illiberal states to the rules-based international order. It argues that one of the most important dynamics of the current international system is how, in the context of interdependence and interaction accelerated by new technologies, the feedback loop between those activities of the PRC, and its international partners, are simultaneously enriching and empowering the PRC, and expanding the space in which such illiberal actors can operate, while

Abstract:

Much social theory takes for granted that transnational people-to-people dialogue is inherently liberal in process and content – a haven of everyday authenticity that shelters ideas of human rights and democratic reform. In contrast, this contribution shows how communist regimes built and institutionalised an encompassing administrative state capacity to control and shape micro-level professional contacts with the West. This extensive but secret system of coercion, which was brought to light only with the opening of former communist regime archives, set a markedly illiberal framework for every
