1 370 Willard Bldg T R 1:00PM-2:15PM Professor Wright Office: Pond Lab 233 Office Hours: Wednesday 1:30-3:30 PM josephgwright@gmail.com COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course examines the politics of authoritarian rule. We address: the conditions that give rise to authoritarianism; the variety of authoritarian regimes; the strategies authoritarian leaders use to stay in power in different types of regimes; the consequences of different types of authoritarianism for outcomes such as economic growth and human development; and the domestic and international sources of authoritarian demise. The course covers examples of authoritarian rule in: Algeria, Chile, China, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Mexico, and the former Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo or DRC). Readings cover theoretical approaches to the study of authoritarian rule, in-depth case studies (including novels, biographies, and documentary), and empirical research. This course requires students to analyze quantitative data and to write multiple short assignments, in addition to a mid-term and final exam. REQUIREMENTS: Students are expected to: (1) attend all lectures; (2) read assigned materials before the start of each class; (3) complete 5 (of 6) exercises; (4) complete a midterm exam; (5) complete a final exam. GRADING: Assignments 5@10% (50%) Midterm (25%); Final (25%) GRADE SCALE: A: ; A-: ; B+: ; B: ; B-: ; C+: ; C: ; D: 60 to 69.9; FAIL: LATE ASSIGNMENTS: Each assignment is due at 1:00 PM (a paper copy in person) on the assigned date. Late assignments accrue a penalty of one letter grade (e.g. B+ becomes C+) each 24-hour period until the assignment is given to the instructor. After 96 hours, no late assignment is accepted. Students who arrive late to class (after 1:00 PM) cannot hand in assignments without accruing the late penalty. LATE EXAMS: Students who miss the mid-term and final exams will be required to take alternative exams at a later date at the professor s discretion. Typically, late exams are conducted at 7:00 AM. LECTURE & DISCUSSION: The two classes each week will be devoted to lecture and discussion. Lectures notes will be posted on ANGEL at the beginning of each week. EXAMS: The midterm exam will take place in-class and will consist of short answer questions and one essay. The final exam will be conducted during final exam week. 1

Norton & Co.) BOILER PLATE: Academic Dishonesty The Department of Political Science, along with the College of the Liberal Arts and the University, takes violations of academic dishonesty seriously. Observing basic honesty in one s work, words, ideas, and actions is a principle to which all members of the community are required to subscribe. All course work by students is to be done on an individual basis unless an instructor clearly states that an alternative is acceptable. Any reference materials used in the preparation of any assignment must be explicitly cited. Students uncertain about proper citation are responsible for checking with their instructor. In an examination setting, unless the instructor gives explicit prior instructions to the contrary, whether the examination is inclass or takehome, violations of academic integrity shall consist but are not limited to any attempt to receive assistance from written or printed aids, or from any person or papers or electronic devices, or of any attempt to give assistance, whether the one so doing has completed his or her own work or not. Lying to the instructor or purposely misleading any Penn State administrator shall also constitute a violation of academic integrity. In cases of any violation of academic integrity it is the policy of the Department of Political Science to follow procedures established by the College of the Liberal Arts. More information on academic integrity and procedures followed for violation can be found at: Students with Disabilities Penn State welcomes students with disabilities into the University s educational programs. If you have a disability-related need for reasonable academic adjustments in this course, contact the Office for Disability Services. For further information regarding policies, rights and responsibilities please visit the Office for Disability Services (ODS) Web site at: Instructors should be notified as early in the semester as possible regarding the need for reasonable accommodations. 1 In lieu of some classic readings in the field, we will use excerpts from Clark, Golder, and Golder Principles of Comparative Politics.
