| Popis | The chapter analyses the influence of so-called modern authoritarianism on democratic regimes in the region of Central and Eastern Europe and formulates implications for the security environment and political stability. It follows a simple structure wherein modern authoritarianism is defined and characterized by empirical evidence and then interpreted in terms of possible negative influences. Chapter presents a brief overview of “deconsolidating processes” in the region of Central and Eastern Europe. It also focuses on the influence of the Russian Federation as one of the main deconsolidating factors, a most viable source of modern authoritarianism in the region. The time scope covers the period from early 2000s when the process of hybridization in the region of Central and Eastern Europe began to accelerate. The paper analyses the situation in countries where authoritarian tendencies have been reported and continuously evolve. The conclusion then sums up the implication of these processes and describes the effect on regional stability. |
