Abstract

To facilitate a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the concept of sultanism, this chapter provides a detailed theoretical and empirical literature review. Firstly, it considers the oriental origins of the concept, as applied by Max Weber and others to the Ottoman Empire and a number of South Asian examples. Secondly, it traces the emergence of ‘contemporary sultanism’, as applied by scholars to Latin American regimes from the mid-twentieth century and onwards. Thirdly, it explores the more recent concept of neo-sultanism and the development of a distinct international empirical category of autocratic-authoritarianism which includes: various Latin America regimes; some of the former communist republics of central Asia and Eastern Europe; and a number of regimes in sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Southeast Asia. Finally, it assesses the need to address the scholarly deficit in applying contemporary sultanism or neo-sultanism to the Middle East, and suggests that the present-day Saudi And UAE regimes may be strong examples.
为了促进对苏丹主义概念的全面和最新的理解,本章提供了详细的理论和实证文献综述。首先,它考虑了这一概念的东方起源,马克斯·韦伯等人将其应用于奥斯曼帝国和一些南亚的例子。其次,它追溯了“当代苏丹主义”的出现,学者们将其应用于二十世纪中期及以后的拉丁美洲政权。第三,它探讨了新苏丹主义的最新概念以及专制专制主义的独特国际经验类别的发展,其中包括:各种拉丁美洲政权;中亚和东欧的一些前共产主义共和国;以及撒哈拉以南非洲和东南亚部分地区的一些政权。最后,它评估了在将当代苏丹主义或新苏丹主义应用于中东时解决学术赤字的必要性,并建议当今的沙特和阿联酋政权可能是强有力的例子。
