RT Article T1 From social contracts to extraction contracts: The political economy of authoritarianism and democracy JF Islam, democracy, and the state in North Africa SP 141 OP 176 A1 Waterbury, John LA English PB Indiana Univ.

Citizens' demands for accountability from their governments will certainly grow, yet transitions from authoritarianism to democracy don't appear unavoidable.
