"Flexible Authoritarianism, and the book, presents a long-needed, thorough empirical perspective that reveals why winners of neoliberal globalization, such as tech tycoons in the US, rush to support autocratic rulers."
This book was awarded with the ASA culture section’s Mary Douglas Prize award for the best book in 2024.
