Crafting pro-democratic coalitions among secularists and Islamists presents a special obstacle that must be addressed by theorists and practitioners. The argument throughout the book is that such coalitions will not happen if potentially democratic secularists are part of what Al Stepan terms the authoritarian regime's "constituency of coercion" because they (the secularists) are afraid that free elections will be won by Islamists who threaten them even more than the existing secular authoritarian regime. Tunisia allows us to do analysis on this topic by comparing two "least similar" recent case outcomes: democratic success in Tunisia and democratic failure in Egypt. Tunisia also allows us to do an analysis of four "most similar" case outcomes by comparing the successful democratic transitions in Tunisia, Indonesia, Senegal, and the country with the second or third largest Muslim population in the world, India. Did these countries face some common challenges concerning democratization? Did all four of these successful cases in fact use some common policies that while democratic, had not normally been used in transitions in countries without significant numbers of Muslims? If so, did these policies help the transitions in Tunisia, Indonesia, Senegal and India? If they did, we should incorporate them in some way into our comparative theories about successful democratic transitions. 650 0 $a Democratization $z Islamic countries. 650 0 $a Democracy $z Islamic countries. 650 0 $a Islam and politics $z Islamic countries. 651 0 $a Islamic countries $x Politics and government $y 21st century. 650 7 $a Democracy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890077 650 7 $a Democratization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890123 650 7 $a Islam and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979879 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a Islamic countries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244130 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 700 1 $a Stepan, Alfred C., $e editor. 830 0 $a Religion, culture, and public life. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211025936.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20190126011731.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B6B98AB6840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
