Thinking about US gerrymandering stories in the news: A few years ago I published an article on "democracy by deterrence." Our motivating example was gerrymandering, examining tit-for-tat retaliation and how it can (or fail to) deter electoral tilting onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/aj…

Glad to see my book review of Colonial Origins of Democracy and Dictatorship by @AlexanderMkLee and @jackpaine_prof in International Affairs @IAJournal_CH ! An essential read if you're interested in the enduring effects of colonial rule on democratic governance.

@ricarthuguet @m0joseph Many thanks @m0joseph for the shout-out! As for some of the other comments—please read the paper! 12,000 words (plus a book-length appendix!) does wonders that 280 characters cannot do Maybe you're convinced by the evidence, maybe not. But engage with that!

@_alice_evans @ricarthuguet For sure, super important point Our conclusion does more justice to this point than I can do in 280 characters—but please let us know if that doesn't clear things up!

@_alice_evans @ricarthuguet Yes, that point is correct. We certainly don't interpret our findings as colonialism producing "good" state/nation formation; many pathologies But the most common summary point about bad colonialism that the borders were drawn in a boardroom in Berlin is incorrect, as we show

@jackpaine_prof @ricarthuguet But even if borders followed prior ethnic boundaries, isn't Alesina et al's point still true that many ethnicities suddenly became nations, yet didn't necessarily have strong ties of shared identity?

Pleased to see research I've been working on with @annemeng_ and @jackpaine_prof on rebel regimes featured in the @nytimes Interpreter column this week. @amandataub did a really nice job summarizing our paper, and discussing its implications for what comes next in #Syria. Link 👇
Anne Meng@annemeng_

My paper with @kbclarke & @jackpaine_prof, “Violent Origins and Authoritarian Order: Divergent Trajectories after Successful Rebellions,” was featured in a NYT article analyzing recent events in Syria. Thanks so much @amandataub! nytimes.com/2024/12/12/wor…

Syria looking like a rare rebel seizure of central power in Asia/Middle East. S Vietnam/Laos/Cambodia 1975, AFG 96,21, Libya 11. Iran 79 a rev but could include. Plenty of coups (Syria, Iraq, Pak., Thai) and invasions (Iraq, Camb) but seizure from within in these regions unusual
