Complexity and Counterterrorism: Thinking about Biometrics
Biometrics, which relies on physical characteristics to identify individuals, enjoys growing support as a counterterrorist tool. However, there is little evidence in this regard. On the contrary, one danger is that biometric systems, such as national identification cards, would create a new target for terrorists to strike, paralyzing critical infrastructure. Given these limitations, why are countries moving toward this questionable form of securi…
The Conservative Peace: An Institutional Explanation of Post-Cold War Stability
Atoms and democracy: Political transition and the role of nuclear energy
Under periods of political change from authoritarianism to democracy, why does nuclear energy become a catalyst for political protest in some countries and not others? This study investigates the link between anti?nuclear protest and democratization, arguing that the extent to which a high?risk technology becomes a target of democratization movements is a function of the institutional characteristics of the technology generated under the precedin…

Introduction: Media reform and democratization in Eastern Europe
Given the role of mass communication in the maintenance of communist authoritarianism, it is not surprising that the abandonment of censorship gave way, across the Eastern Europe, to a flourishing of the press, as new titles in unaccustomed areas burst forth. The notion of a free press is central to many models of ‘democracy’, and this new development was therefore warmly welcomed. However, experience in a number of countries has shown an inabili…
Pluralization and the politics of media change in Hungary
In Hungary, under the relatively benign rule of János Kádár's ‘goulash communism’, the media were less rigidly controlled than elsewhere in Eastern and Central Europe, permitting broader scope for debate. This affected the transition, in which some media spontaneously privatized themselves, with the involvement of foreign media conglomerates. By 1994, however, the government regained control over several important publications and otherwise foste…
Revolution from Within: Institutional Analysis, Transitions from Authoritarianism, and the Case of Hungary
The Hungarian transition from socialism stands out from other examples of political change in the region, in that the ruling Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party (MSZMP) suffered an erosion of political power generated largely from within the party itself. The study shows how the Communist Party, after its destruction in the revolution of 1956, sought to institutionalize its rule through a course of limited liberalization and the broad co-optation …
