- More about Policy Agendas in Autocracy, and Hybrid Regimes: The Case of Hungary
The Comparative Agendas Project (CAP) has become a fast-growing sub-field in policy research, but most agenda-setting literature focuses on well-established democracies. This edited volume offers a ground-breaking analysis of policy agendas in Socialist autocracy and hybrid regimes, finding that punctuated equilibrium theory offers a good description of policy dynamics but punctuations are more pronounced in autocratic and illiberal settings. These regime types also share a tendency towards centralization, a less efficient use of public information, and a suppression of democratic participation in the policy process.

The Comparative Agendas Project (CAP) has emerged as a rapidly growing sub-field in policy research over the past thirty years, focusing on the comparative study of policy agendas across different countries. While most agenda-setting literature has traditionally focused on well-established democracies, this edited volume offers a ground-breaking analysis of a less examined topic in comparative politics: the dynamics of policy agendas in Socialist autocracy and in hybrid regimes. The book proposes that policymaking in authoritarian and illiberal regimes differs from the practices of democracies, and it provides a unique historical policy agendas database built by the Hungarian CAP team at the Centre for Social Sciences in Budapest to support this claim. The book finds that punctuated equilibrium theory offers a good description of policy dynamics regardless of policy regimes, but punctuations are more pronounced in autocratic and illiberal settings. These regime types also share a tendency towards centralization, a less efficient use of public information, and a suppression of democratic participation in the policy process. This book is of interest to scholars and students of policy studies, agenda-setting, and the politics of authoritarianism.
