About this book

Across many non-democratic regimes, non-state groups supply medical care, schooling, childrearing and other social services to millions of people. The book asks why an authoritarian government would tolerate this kind of activism, and under what conditions such private provision leads to political mobilisation.

It also considers what kind of link the provision of services creates between the provider and the people who receive it.
