Protests, Political Violence and Its Alternatives with Erica Chenoweth
You’ve probably seen footage or photos of people protesting the Trump regime. Some data suggests that the volume of protestors is higher than in Trump’s first term. But at the same time, you might be wondering if we’re seeing enough civil resistance to preserve American democracy. Our guest this week is one of the authors of a study that found that just 3.5% of the population taking to the streets is enough to block authoritarian takeover. Erica Chenoweth is a political scientist at Harvard. They join to discuss historical and contemporary strategies for protesting, democratic backsliding, global compar...

How to turn back a rising tide of political threats and violence
The attempted assassination of former President and candidate Donald Trump has catalyzed an important discussion about both actual violence and threats of violence against political candidates, office-holders, policymakers, election officials, and others whose efforts help make our democracy work. Harvard Kennedy School professors Erica Chenoweth and Archon Fung join host Ralph Ranalli to talk about political violence, what it is, what it isn’t, why it has grown, and—most importantly—strategies for mitigating it to ensure the health of democratic governance in the United States and beyond. The motivations and political leanings of the 20-year-old Pennsylvania man who shot a...

We can productively discuss even the toughest topics—here’s how
As our discourse and our politics have become both more polarized and paralyzed, Harvard Kennedy School faculty members Erica Chenoweth and Julia Minson say we need to refocus on listening to understand, instead of talking to win. In mid-2022, the School launched the Candid and Constructive Conversations initiative, based on the idea that frank yet productive discussions over differences are not only vital to democracy and a functioning society, but that the ability to have them was also an essential skill for students, staff, and faculty in the Harvard community and beyond to learn. The effort—which uses techniques an...

Can the earth be saved with nonviolence?
In 2020, the renowned Swedish climate activist and Marxist Andreas Malm published a book with a spectacularly provocative title: How to Blow Up a Pipeline.The book serves less as a how-to guide (there are no diagrams for building bombs here) and more as an argument in favor of sabotage as a valid tool in the activist’s toolkit. The pipeline, in Malm’s formulation, is not just a literal pipeline, but the pipeline from new fossil fuel projects like mines, wells, and infrastructure, to future fossil fuel emissions. This, he believes, desperately needs blowing up.His...

Ickevåld fungerar dubbelt så ofta som våld (med Lotta Sjöström Becker från Kristna Fredsrörelsen)
Forskning från Harvards universitet visar att ickevåldsliga motståndsrörelser har varit dubbelt så framgångsrika som våldsamma motståndsrörelser under 1900-talet. Samtliga ickevåldsrörelser som har omfattat minst 3,5 % av befolkningen har lyckats genomföra sina mål. Även i Ukraina har över 200 ickevåldsaktioner haft framgång i att motarbeta den ryska invasionen, enligt en studie från International Catalan Institute for Peace. Men diskussionerna i Sverige om kriget i Ukraina kretsar nästan uteslutande om militära händelser och strategier som kan leda till seger. Men pekar inte ickevåldsforskningen på att...

Why women are authoritarianism’s targets—and how they can be its undoing
Harvard Kennedy School Professor Erica Chenoweth and Lecturer in Public Policy Zoe Marks say the parallel global trends of rising authoritarianism and attempts to roll back women’s rights are no coincidence. The hard won rights women have attained over the past century—to education, to full participation in the workforce, in politics, and civic life, and to reproductive healthcare—have transformed society and corresponded with historic waves of democratization around the world. But they have also increasingly become the target of authoritarian leaders and regimes looking to displace democracy with hierarchies controlled by male elites and to re-confine women...

Beyond Roe: The Mutually Reinforcing Nature of Misogyny and Autocracy
The United States is still reeling from the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, ending the constitutional right to abortion. The move makes the United States an outlier among developed countries when it comes to abortion rights, but this rollback in women’s equality is part of a broader trend. Women’s political and economic empowerment is stalling or declining around the world—and the assault on women’s rights coincides with a global democratic recession. Why is women’s equality being rolled back at the same time authoritarianism is on the rise? What is the relationship b...

Mark Beissinger on Contemporary Urban Civic Revolutions
I think the revolutionary process has become somewhat less consequential in some ways. The ability to bring about substantive change in the wake of revolution has deteriorated for one thing. We've gained certain things as well. I mean, revolutions are no longer as violent as they once were. They're more frequent than they once were, almost more normal in terms of being part of the political landscape in a way that they were not in the past.Mark BeissingerA full transcript is available at www.democracyparadox.com.Mark Beissinger is a professor...

with Srđa Popović Since the war in Ukraine, many have been wondering how to get rid of dictators like Putin. We asked ourselves the same question and therefore invited Srđa Popović to our podcast. Srđa was part of the movement that liberated Serbia from dictator Slobodan Milošević in the late 90s. Today he advises movements around the world from Sudan, the US to Brazil. There he supports activists who fight for democracy. That's why the Guardian once called him the "architect of global revolt."

Women V. Authoritarians

In this episode, we discuss why women help to make these movements so successful and what this means for the prospects of democracy around the world. In a time when authoritarianism is on the rise and women's rights are being rolled back by these same governments, it is important to understand how these issues intersect. Article Link...

A full transcript is available at www.democracyparadox.com.Barrington Moore famously claimed, “No bourgeoisie. No democracy.” Many scholars before and after Moore have argued the middle class is necessary for successful democratization. But Moore had a specific image of the middle class. The bourgeoisie were not simply white-collar professionals. They were entrepreneurs who were independent of the landed aristocracy.Bryn Rosenfeld recognizes a new source for the growth of the middle class. Many authoritarian regimes have established a state dependent middle class. A professional class who relies on the state bureaucracy for employment and thin...

Désobéissance civile et modération
Faire preuve de "modération" par temps d'injustice radicale voir de danger vital, ne rendra service à personne. Reprenons les travaux d’Erica Chenoweth, professeur à l’Université de Denver. Entre 1900 et 2006, 60 % des mouvements de désobéissance civiles non violents ont abouti. Entre 1940 et 2006, 70 % des luttes populaires étaient non violentes. Par ailleurs, il suffit que 3,5 % de la population se mobilise pour faire tomber un régime selon les mêmes travaux. Ces chiffres sont à prendre avec des pincettes et ne peuvent servir de vérité absolue, mais de l'autre côté, le message envoyé par les révoltes tunisiennes, c'est que n'importe quel régime ne...

The work of creating a multiracial democracy - a democracy where power is truly shared, and equity is real - can feel overwhelming, depressing, futile even. But what if the tipping point for creating lasting change is only 3.5%? Dr. Chenoweth (Harvard University) found that no civil resistance campaign across the globe over the last century “failed after they had achieved the active and sustained participation of just 3.5% of the population.” Now we are at a unique historical moment to harness changing mindsets, to build a 3.5% of actively engaged white and/or privileged parents practicing antiracist integration.

Activists from around the world reach out to Harvard Kennedy School Professor Erica Chenoweth on an almost daily basis.

They turn to her because her groundbreaking research has shown that, when done the right way, nonviolent civil resistance is actually more effective at driving political change than taking up arms.
