Q&A with Directors of the Democratic Erosion Consortium

The DEC Co-Directors and Research Director had the opportunity to reflect on and discuss our work with Mike Albertus, Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago, in a Q&A on his Substack, The Good Society. This discussion covers how our work engages in critical questions about how to measure and teach about democracy, as well as identify democratic threats in the U.S. and around the world.  We also discuss the recent update to our Democratic Erosion Event Dataset (DEED) and our new project to build a US-focused version of the dataset.
