Coup D'etat.: Why Do They Fail So Often?

Coup D'etat.: Why Do They Fail So Often?

The number of coups that succeed as a fraction of those attempted has seen a steady decrease. Statistics for the past decade indicate that for every coup that succeeds, there 3 that fail. The punishment for failed coups is imprisonment. But perpetrators often find themselves staring down the barrel of the executionerâ€™s gun. So why are coups still so popular? In this short piece, I analyze why so many of the coups launched all over the world fail. I present evidence which points to the fact that coup makers may be deliberating disregarding information that points to the potential failure of a coup attempt.
