He then traces both its source in the level of security of the winners and delineates its consequences on the subsequent behavior of oppositions, the likelihood of democracy, and the survival of the revolutionary elite, using a remarkable mixture of detailed historical work, data creation, and sophisticated statistical analysis. He uses a simple theory about perceptions to develop more than 20 hypotheses. Further, he tirelessly and rigorously probes his data, conducting additional analyses to demonstrate that his findings are not artifacts. The breadth of methods used is stunning. Scholars interested in repression and the outcomes of internal war will learn a great deal from this work.
