dc.description.abstractMajor findings of this cross-country research show that while the traditional “modernity” variables remain important determinants of democracy in the long-run, they fail to explain the persistence of the Arab democracy deficit relative to other comparable regions. On the other hand, oil and conflicts and their interactions appear to explain this deficit. Country-specific factors can include religious divisions leading to authoritarian rule, outside interventions by other powers, de-industrialization, control by the state, persistence of colonial institutions. The report covers outcomes, outputs and activities of the project.en
