I'm doing a paper in political science this week, and the idea is to compare how democratic and authoritarian states hold public officials accountable for any maladministration. Now, I have plenty of information on how democracies do it, but not on how authoritarian states does it.
My question is thus: does anyone have any links to information on how these less democratic states chooses to review their public officials? Just some general info.
Thanks!
Edit: I'm interrested both in the accountability downwards to the public (if such one even exist), and upwards to the ruling elite.
