THE RETURN OF SULTANISM AND POLITICAL REPRESSION IN NICARAGUA

Original language description

The article examines Nicaragua&apos;s transformation towards a sultanistic regime. Describing the Nicaraguan developments in 2023 through the sultanistic perspec-tive is useful for understanding the type of repression unleashed by the regime, the political strategy of the Ortega-Murillo governing couple, as well as for understan-ding the possible future fate of the regime which faces succession dilemmas due to its evident dynasticization. The article focuses on the modes of repression carried out by the regime, including the proscription of the remaining opposition parties as well as the intensified harassment of the Catholic Church, leading opposition figures and the business community. Demonstrating that the current political con-text satisfies the core attributes of sultanism, the article suggests that these features solidified in 2023. The article elucidates potential future trajectories for Nicaragua based on a comparison with similar regime
