Ruling by Cheating: Governance in Illiberal Democracy - Cambridge Studies in Constitutional Law
Sajo, Andras (Central European University, Budapest)
Populist, illiberal regimes that claim power in the name of relative majorities are often characterized as quasi-authoritarian. Analysing the constitutional system of illiberal democracies and illiberal phenomena in 'mature democracies', the author argues that this drift to mild despotism is not authoritarianism, but an abuse of constitutionalism.
