SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:A New World of Authoritarian Welfare?
DESCRIPTION:Moderator: Dan Slater\, Director\, U-M Center for Emerging Democracies\n\nDemocracy and social welfare have long been seen as mutually reinforcing\, but the connection is anything but universal or automatic. With illiberal and autocratic leaders around the world offering more generous welfare policies to consolidate their power\, do we need to rethink the relationships between democracy\, authoritarianism\, and welfare? Experts on Europe\, Latin America\, the Middle East\, the former Soviet Union\, and Asia tackle this topic from different world-regions and multiple analytical perspectives.\n\n*Cosponsored by the Open Society Foundations and the Central European University (CEU) Democracy Institute*.\n\nAtten in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/8qVGq.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at emergingdemocracies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
