An entity that is authoritarian and hierarchical in nature cannot be relied on to protect and promote a democratic transition. A case can be made for military intervention when a country finds itself on the edge of civil war, as Turkey was in 1980 (and as Egypt arguably was in July); but one should not confuse restoring order with restoring democracy.
所有这些都不能为伊斯兰领导人滥用权力开拓。但是，正如土耳其军队一再干预被认为的伊斯兰威胁妨碍了民主，埃及军队推翻穆尔西也无助于重建民主。一个集权主义的层级制实体是不可靠的，不能指望它推进民主转型。当一国走在内战边缘时（比如1980年土耳其战争，7月份的埃及也大有这一势头），军事干预有理可据；但你不能把重建秩序和重建民主混淆起来。
