Our feature on #DemocraticErosion is coming to an end. This week, we have highlighted typical signs of democratic erosion, how #DemocraticResistance works, and that democracies can recover under the right conditions.

❓ What insights surprised you the most? Let us know in the comment section! 👇

What can we learn from recovered democracies?

#GIGA researcher @desireereder.bsky.social explores how #Ecuador and #Guatemala have managed to reverse #DemocraticErosion – and what shaped their path back to #democracy. Insights from her research conducted with Monika Onken.

Can democracies bounce back after decline?

#GIGA researcher @desireereder.bsky.social sheds light on the trend of #ReDemocratisation, the process by which countries reverse #DemocraticErosion. She shares insights from her research project, conducted in collaboration with Monika Onken. 👇

🔎 Which strategies for resisting #DeDemocratisation do actually work?

#GIGA researcher @ripplingeralina.bsky.social explains the most common and effective #resistance strategies, as well as the available legal mechanisms.

#DemocraticErosion

🔎 Who does actually step up to resist when governments overreach – and why?

#GIGA's @ripplingeralina.bsky.social explains which groups or individuals tend to join #DemocraticResistance, what motivates them to take personal risks & what kind of dangers they face in standing up.

#DemocraticErosion

The expansion of executive power is a key element of #DemocraticErosion. What happens when power becomes concentrated in the hands of one leader? What role did the pandemic play in this global trend?

#GIGA's @millanos.bsky.social explains key concepts behind Personalization of Executive Power.

#DemocraticErosion is a slow weakening of democratic norms and institutions – press freedom, judicial independence, fair elections, trust, and more. Global #democracy is in crisis, but #ReDemocratisation is possible. #GIGA researchers explore the causes & paths forward. Swipe through! #DemocracyDay
