Summary
Authoritarian learning is a concept that does not merely occur at the highest levels of government. Rather, those involved in the actual learning tend to be personnel further down the state hierarchy. This chapter analyses which state institutions are involved in learning. While information is difficult to obtain, there are pointers in the chapter to the notion that lower-level personnel are the main protagonists when it comes to learning. While there are several institutions involved in learning, there are differences in the number engaged in learning from external and internal examples
