Free from State Violence or Free to Comply? A Revised Typology of Coercion and Repression in Liberal Democracies

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This article addresses the problem of unclear usage of "co- ercion" and "repression" in literature concerning protest and repression in democratic and nondemocratic states. It questions the bases and conclu- sions of domestic democratic peace theory and discusses its consequences. The article proposes expanding de fi nitions of coercion and repression in terms of timing, agency, and perceptiveness. Using vocabulary of poststruc- turalist discourse theory and the "logics" approach to analyzing social phe- nomena, it introduces the notion of hegemonic coercion and repression and describes their functioning. It argues that contemporary liberal democracies are not free from coercion and repression, but that the hegemony embodied in the state is able to sustain itself by means of hegemonic coercion with little use of direct violence. Consequently, the absence of state violence is not a criterion of a mature democracy, but can also be a characteristic of a totalitarian regime where ideological deviations are strictly and preemptively controlled.
