Excited to share my newest pub with the esteemed @dhdannychoi.bsky.social wherein we argue that the legacies of democratic erosion can persistently undermine democratic recovery even after autocrats are voted out of power. Check out the full essay for free using the link below:

Conventional wisdom says that, once in power, opposition parties will return backsliding countries to the democratic path. In reality, not only is this not true, but it is not uncommon for the opposition to adopt the autocratic habits of the regime they replaced.

So happy to see this out! We caution against excessive optimism that the opposition will restore countries back to their democratic trajectories after electoral victory. Weakened institutions and the memory of repression makes it tempting to continue rather than buck the trend of autocratization.

In times where courts and the judicial power are in the center of the storm, there is much to learn from "Courts in the Global South". Happy to share this review article just published @annualreviews.bsky.social
