Description

In a quiet period for elections we're taking a look at authoritarian successor parties- the phenomenon where the ruling parties of authoritarian regimes take to electoral politics, and are often quite successful. While this might seem odd at first glance, we break down exactly why people would still want to vote for these parties when they have the choice, and debate whether they're good or bad for democracy.
