\u6982\u8981Outline:<\/strong> Flawed elections are a foundation of autocratic rule. An acute challenge for dictatorships is to maintain political control without sacrificing electoral credibility. This delicate balancing act has compelled many to offer formal compliance to the international norm of external observation; thereby inviting intergovernmental organisations, non-governmental organisations and\/or sovereign states in to assess the freedom and fairness of the electoral process. The risk of such compliance is that these same actors might issue a highly critical assessment, which is exactly what occurred in Ukraine (2004), Kenya (2008), Cambodia (2013) and Venezuela (2018), amongst many other cases. Over the past two decades, a growing number of dictatorships have mitigated this risk by instead handpicking those accredited to be international election observers. A shortlist of the cast of characters includes ambassadors, academics, civil servants, corporate executives, journalists, lawyers, members of parliament, public relations consultants, and even former presidents and prime ministers. Upon closer inspection, however, it is evident that these seemingly reputable international observers are working as partisan agents and their assessments are predicated on disinformation. In the pursuit of control and<\/em> credibility, autocratic regimes have fuelled the rise of \u201cimitation\u201d election observers. This talk addresses the origins, features, and impact of this alarming phenomenon. The result is the fullest and clearest ever picture of how dictatorships utilise sympathetic individuals and groups to give their elections the tick of approval.<\/p>\n
