“…In the debate on new forms of governance, it has become fashionable to speak of hybrid actors, hybrid forms of governance, and hybrid regimes (Erdmann, 2002;Rüb, 2002;Lemos and Agrawal, 2006;Erdmann, 2007;Bünte, 2006).…”

“…Although it died away as a “lonely call in the desert” within the democracies established by transition, the reference to “authoritarian enclaves” (Garretón 1991:47) now indicates that democratic and undemocratic partial regimes may well coexist in one single regime. From this point, although to a greater extent now than before, only a few authors advanced to assert the existence of hybrid regimes (Karl 1995:72–86; Malloy 1998:257; Diamond 2002:21; Erdmann 2002:323–342; Rüb 2002:93–119). However, this idea has so far only been conceptualized in a fragmented manner.…”

“…Additional pioneering work was done by Rüb (2002:93–119), who developed a concept of hybrid regimes as independent and durable regime types, that, in contrast to Erdmann's (2002:323) concept, are universal rather than limited to certain regions. Rüb makes an effort to set defining minima of both authoritarian and democratic regimes and conceptually “encircles” the hybrid regime that lies in between.…”

“…Rüb’s recognition of hybrid regimes as an independent regime type allows us to view transition to democracy as a contradictory event, advancing‐retreating, longer‐lasting, even an incomplete process, instead of a singular event. However, Rüb flatters his hybrid regime category by following a “binary logic of a typology” (Rüb 2002:114) and keeping the old dichotomy of authoritarianism and democracy. Although he objects to the idea of hybrid regimes being merely short‐lived transitional phenomena, his definition remains teleological.…”

Regime-Hybridity in Developing Countries: Achievements and Limitations of New Research on Transitions

Research on transitions has reached a crossroad. Should it be abandoned because the third wave of transitions to democracy has ended, or should it continue because so much remains unaccounted for regarding the third wave? This paper suggests that regime hybridity constitutes a widespread institutional setting resulting from incomplete transitions. Regime‐hybridity is defined as a specific regime type in which “partial regimes” within the “political regime” are democratic while others are nondemocratic, although not necessarily authoritarian. Underlying the concept is the assumption that the “political regime” stretches beyond the institutions of the state to include civil society. It is at this level that the work on transitions can be connected to the research on the dynamics of economic exclusion in the context of rent economies. This paper develops a checklist for identifying “partial regimes” that constitute regime‐hybridity and applies it to the case of Colombia to identify linkages between political transition and socioeconomic transformation.

Transition from Democracy - Loss of Quality, Hybridisation and Breakdown of Democracy

The paper points out that there is hardly any research for the reverse transition, the transition from democracy to non-democratic regimes for more than 30 years. For heuristical purposes, it provides basic data of the decline of democracy, which refers to loss of democratic quality, changes from liberal democracy to hybrid and to authoritarian regimes, during the third wave of democratisation . The stocktaking shows that most of the cases of decline refer to the change in and from young democracies established during the third wave, especially after 1989. Loss of democratic quality and hybridization are the most frequent cases of decline, while the breakdown of democracy has been very rare. Young democracies and poorer countries are more prone to decline than the older and richer cases -aside from a few remarkable exceptions. Finally, the overview argues that the research on the decline of democracy can benefit from the richness of the approaches of transitology, but should also avoid its methodological traps and failures, concluding with a number of suggestions for the future research agenda.
