Dr Stephen Hall - How Authoritarian Regimes Learn from Each Other Spreading Intolerance like a Virus

Can democracies preserve their norms and values from increasing attacks by understanding how authoritarian regimes learn? This is the question posed by Dr Stephen G. F. Hall in his forthcoming book. Looking at two established authoritarian regimes, Belarus, and Russia, he identifies clear signs of collaboration between authoritarian-minded elites, in developing survival best practices and learning from previous regimes in their own countries. For authoritarian-minded elites the main imperative is survival, and after that propagation of their values to like-minded regimes.

Dr Stephen Hall is a Lecturer (and Assistant Professor) in Russian and Post-Soviet Politics, at the Department of Politics, Languages, and International Studies at the University of Bath. His specialist field is Russian & Post-Soviet Politics, and his research focuses on the authoritarian regimes in the post-Soviet space, especially Belarus, Moldova, Russia, and Ukraine. He completed his PhD in 2020 at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London and he has been published in various journals including East European Politics, Journal of Eurasian Studies, Russian Politics, Problems of Post-Communism, Post-Communist Economies, and Europe-Asia Studies.
