Über What Do We Know and What Should We Do About Authoritarian Regimes?
An expert and accessible exploration of the increasing number and influence of authoritarian regimes. It explains the realities of recent trends to `autocratization¿, the tools these regimes use, what we can do to resist, and why we might even allow ourselves some optimism.
70% of the world¿s population lives under autocracy. Cases such as China and Russia are as prominent and urgent as ever, but authoritarianism is spreading across the globe. There are more openly authoritarian states than ever, democratic regimes are `backsliding¿ into autocracy, and authoritarian values and practices are increasingly normalized. This trend is attracting attention not just in academia, but across the wider media, among politicians and policy makers, and NGOs and international business.
Natasha Lindstaedt is a world-leading authority in the field. Her academic reputation is arguably unmatched. She¿s also engaged outside academia, and regularly works with international policymakers and organisations.
