April 13, 2021 The quality of democracy is under threat the world over, from the Americas to Asia to Europe. In Authoritarianism and Democratic Backsliding in Southeast Asia – a virtual roundtable on April 15 at 8:00 p.m. ET – panelists will discuss how rising authoritarianism is reshaping politics in Myanmar, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines. “The term ‘authoritarianism’ has many different meanings, from nondemocratic rule to illiberal politics to a focus on order and law above civil liberties,” said Thomas Pepinsky, the Walter F.

This includes the historical or societal forces that have produced the current moment – and the implications for politics over the medium term.”
