TY - GEN A1 - Berg, Andrea T1 - Dynastie oder Demokratie? : Die Personalisierung des Staates in Zentralasien T1 - Dynasty or democracy? : The personalisation of the state in Central Asia N2 - The increasing concentration of power in the hands of the presidential families in all Central Asian states led to the personalisation of the state during the last years. The presidents successfully established neo-patrimonial, authoritarian regimes with a high level of consolidation but without fulfilling the criterion of democracy. The article explores the strategies the presidents use to maintain their authority and discusses which political developments can be expected concerning the question of succession.
