Happening TODAY! Join us and our brilliant authors from our Emerging Democracies book series where they discuss how authoritarian restrictions, strategic boycotts, and incumbent bias might force us to read elections against the grain and rethink the foundation of democracy.
How can we understand elections when they don’t always provide voters with straightforward opportunities to hold politicians accountable? Join us on Tuesday, 9/30, for a roundtable with Emerging Democracies authors that will explore this question. ⏰4-5:30pm 📍 555 Weiser Hall
