🚨New Publication🚨 Why do #autocracies enfranchise their citizens abroad?
w/ Ali Kiani & @EvaOstergaard from @migrademo we argue autocrats consider the risks+benefits of an enfranchised diaspora. Legitimacy, repression, co-optation & the diaspora profile are key

How has President Obiang of Equatorial Guinea 🇬🇶 evolved his elite strategy over 40yrs in power? Exploiting individual elite data @austinsmatthews & Ana Lúcia Sá (@CEI_Iscte) find that co-regionality with Obiang is key to elite political survival. doi.org/10.1080/135103…
Drawing on the "community pantry" phenomenon in the Philippines 🇵🇭, @CeciliaPeLero finds evidence that apolitical civic engagement can be an effective, if limited, form of democratic resistance in autocratizing settings. doi.org/10.1080/135103…
The debate on democracy in global media discourse indicates a set of common denominators. Yet, by relating democracy to everyday politics, media seems to legitimise any regime as democratic rather than being a beacon for liberal democracy. @StefanDahlbergdoi.org/10.1080/135103…
50% of elections in this mega election year take place in autocratizing countries. Freedom of expression and media, free and fair elections, and civil society organizations are under attack around the globe. @FabioAngiolillo et al. from @vdeminstitutedoi.org/10.1080/135103…

Concessions, which can serve as a useful tool for managing protest, are more commonly used where state capacity is high. High-capacity 🇲🇽 states were more likely to offer cheap concessions, but not more likely to engage in costly reform. @vottasullivan doi.org/10.1080/135103…
Job insecurity is associated with support for strong undemocratic leaders not subject to legislative checks and balances. Enhancing job security and expanding public welfare provisions could bolster citizens’ democratic attitudes and behaviours. @hkwon0301doi.org/10.1080/135103…
Dr. @Y2Kureshi's research into judicial contestation & military prerogatives is a very interesting read on the politico-legal culture of power & jurisprudence in 🇵🇰. Engrossed by the great insights especially relevant in the contemporary context. 1/ @TCDLawSchool@democ_journal
