Political rights and civil liberties scores correlate strongly across regimes
Evidence
In addition to the dividing line between electoral democracy and nondemocracy, figure 4.2 arrays the same selection of countries on political rights (vertical axis) and civil liberties (horizontal axis). Regimes cluster along the diagonal, which means that regimes with high scores on political rights also tend to receive high scores on civil liberties, and vice versa. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 455
