Kenneth M Roberts’ chapter on authoritarianism in South America explains why, despite its achievements during the Third Wave of democratization, South America is not immune to the patterns of democratic backsliding seen across much of the world. https://t.co/u3OpO33OwC

Dan Slater distinguishes modern authoritarianism from earlier forms of nondemocratic rule, tracing the evolution of modern authoritarianism primarily as a response to the historical rise of popular sovereignty and the territorial state. @SlaterPolitics https://t.co/xSLvjfczUc

https://t.co/W8aMkEnMPN Recenty read this excellent article on the Arab Spring Revolution in Tunisia in 2014 by @AnneMWolf It reveals the power of erroneous beliefs in forcing a revolution... It makes you think of the recent 2022 January Events in KZ...
This book on Ennahda, I reviewed for @openDemocracy, and written when there was still some hope with Tunisia as the last candle of Arab Spring. Under Kais Saeid presidency, and most of Ennahda's leadership under detention, we are talking about very different possible futures.
