The Center for Emerging Democracies occasionally hosts special events including conferences, workshops, and symposia that focus on the center's thematic. Details of these events can be found below.
Understanding how and why democracies emerge requires attention to how and why they submerge. In this second installment of the multiyear and cross-university Democratic Change Research Initiative, this conference gathers leading scholars of authoritarianism and democratization at the CED to present and discuss their ongoing research on why democracy and autocracy either emerge and endure or falter and fail.
