In their quest for national revival, China's leaders under Xi Jinping have sought to improve the economy's performance. The disappointing economic record of authoritarian regimes provides ample grounds for doubt, yet not all have failed. Why have some succeeded where most did not? The theory of the "enabling condition" highlights the central role that politics plays in the pursuit of economic advancement.

Focusing on the experience of single party, authoritarian regimes, The Autocrat's Predicament: The Political Peril of Economic Upgrade in Single Party, Authoritarian Regimes examines episodes in the histories of the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, and the Soviet Union. It concludes that China's unfavorable political situation could be potentially unfriendly for its ambitions to build an efficient, highly productive economy.
