Is it the same force that has generated stability in Britain since 1746, in the United States since 1776, and in a growing number of nations around the world?</p><p>This thoughtful and engaging book offers the first extended analysis of coups, which have played a central role in world history and politics. Ivan Perkins draws on his extensive research on the history and inner workings of coups to explain how a small but growing number of nations have escaped chronic violence and built states with perpetually peaceful transfers of power. Readers will explore the rising coup-free zone, from the baroque system behind 486 years of stability in Venice to todays heavy-handed but efficient regime in Singapore. Along the way, the author recounts some of historys most gripping political intrigues: the spontaneous street uprising against King Tarquinius Superbus in Rome, the machinations of Bengali officials that launched the British Empire, and the fears that compelled General Pinochet to join a coup and become dictator of Chile.</p><p>Perkins examines in detail the first three coup-free states. He argues against the standard theory of stability, which holds that professional military officers are so thoroughly trained in ethics and civilian control that leading a coup would be unthinkable. Instead, he proposes a new and simpler interpretation: stability is founded not on ethics but on law. An impartial rule of law weakens personal loyalty relationships, especially within the political-military establishment, and inhibits grand criminal conspiracies. The book concludes with a new explanation for the democratic peace and shows why coup-free states form enduring alliances.</p>...3759119Vanishing Coup18362040https://www.gandhi.com.mx/vanishing-coup-9781442222724/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3505392/cd389508-cdc3-4248-ae27-b57fa361bf2f.jpg?v=638914822316400000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139781442222724_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_<p>How did the Republic of Venice go 486 years without a single coup détat or coup attempt?
