“…This approach, which is the primary focus of three of the four articles in this special issue, as well as of a small but rapidly growing literature on authoritarian attitudinal legacies, has the advantage of being able to address the crucial question of legacy durability. Several existing studies have established the existence and the durable impact of authoritarian regimes on a variety of attitudes including lower support for and satisfaction with democracy (Neundorf, 2010; Pop-Eleches & Tucker, 2014, 2017), demand for democracy (Mattes & Bratton, 2007), support for the previous regime (Mishler & Rose, 2007), the emergence of political trust (Mishler & Rose, 2001), attitudes toward markets and welfare states (Alesina & Fuchs-Schündeln, 2007; Pop-Eleches & Tucker, 2014, 2017), as well as behavior, including lower civic and political participation (Bernhard & Karakoç, 2007; Ekiert & Kubik, 2014; Northmore-Ball, 2014; Pop-Eleches & Tucker, 2014).…”
