Description: Report offers a theoretical and methodological framework with which to relate regime type      to the specific structure and function of the national state apparatus, thereby providing an      analytic tool for early prognostication of regime type and objectives. Much attention has      been recently devoted to the concepts of regime and state as integral elements of modern      political systems. Even so, little attention has been given to the relationship between these      two elements, particularly the influence regime type has on the concrete organization of the      national state apparatus. This note offers a theoretical and methodological framework with      which to relate regime type to the specific structure and function of the state apparatus, in      order to provide an analytic tool that will be of value to students of regime-state relations in      both the academic and policy-making communities.
