The Varieties of Religious Repression: Why Governments Restrict Religion
Sarkissian, Ani (Associate Professor of Political Science, Associate Professor of Political Science, Michigan State University, Lansing, MI)
The Varieties of Religious Repression argues that seemingly benign regulations and restrictions on religion are tools that non-democratic leaders use to repress independent civic activity, effectively maintaining their hold on power. Ani Sarkissian examines the interaction of political competition and the structure of religious divisions in society, presenting a theory of the variances of religious repression across non-democratic regimes.
