Dictating the Agenda - The...

alexander cooley, Alexander...

Following the end of the Cold War, the world experienced a remarkable wave of democratization. Over the next two decades, numerous authoritarian regimes transitioned to democracies, and it seemed that authoritarianism as a political model was fading. But as recent events have shown, things have clearly changed. 
 
 
 
In Dictating the Agenda, authors Alexander Cooley and Alexander Dukalskis reveal how today's authoritarian states are actively countering liberal ideas and advocacy surrounding human rights and democracy across various global governance domains. The transformed global context has unlocked for authoritarian states the possibility to contend with Western liberal soft power in new, traditionally "non-political" ways. Cooley and Dukalskis ultimately advance a theory of authoritarian snapback, the process in which non-democratic states limit the transnational resonance of liberal ideas at home and advance anti-liberal norms and ideas into the global public sphere. 
 
 
 
Drawing from a range of evidence, this book doesn't just reveal the limits of the liberal influence taken for granted across the world. It offers a novel theory of how authoritarian governments figured out how to exploit and repurpose the same actors, tools, and norms that once exclusively promoted and sustained US-backed liberalism.

The Arab Spring - Uprising and...

Nova Ashford

The Arab Spring, a series of pro-democracy uprisings, protests, and revolutions that swept across the Arab world beginning in late 2010, marked a significant turning point in the modern history of the Middle East. The movement, which began in Tunisia and quickly spread to other countries including Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria, and Bahrain, was driven by widespread discontent with authoritarian regimes, economic inequality, and a lack of political freedoms. The Arab Spring was not a single, unified event but rather a collection of distinct yet interconnected uprisings fueled by both longstanding grievances and immediate catalysts. It highlighted the power of ordinary citizens in challenging deeply entrenched political systems, showing the world that the will for change could be powerful even in the face of brutal government repression. 
The Arab Spring began on December 17, 2010, when Mohamed Bouazizi, a street vendor in Tunisia, set himself on fire in protest of police harassment and government corruption. His act of desperation sparked mass protests throughout Tunisia, which eventually led to the ousting of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in January 2011. This success encouraged similar uprisings in neighboring countries, particularly in Egypt, where mass protests in Cairo’s Tahrir Square forced President Hosni Mubarak to resign after 30 years in power. These initial successes ignited a wave of hope across the Arab world that authoritarian regimes could be overthrown and democratic reforms could be achieved.
