The Authoritarianism Project

The Authoritarianism Project is a research initiative that studies how authoritarian regimes—governments where power is concentrated in a few and individual freedoms are limited—operate and sustain themselves. It examines factors like political control, propaganda, repression, and social dynamics to understand why such regimes persist and how they impact societies. The goal is to inform efforts to promote democracy and human rights by providing insights into the mechanisms of authoritarian rule and identifying strategies for resistance and change.
