要旨Abstract： 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. Based on his new book Dictating the Agenda: The Authoritarian Resurgence in World Politics (Oxford University Press, co-authored with Alexander Cooley), Dukalskis will reveal how today’s authoritarian states are actively countering liberal ideas and advocacy surrounding human rights and democracy across various global governance domains. The talk will present original data gathered in areas that include global media, sport, consumer advocacy campaigns, and transnational higher education. Dukalskis will also discuss the changing role of the United States in shaping these trends under the second Trump administration.
