Can free academia withstand democratic backsliding? Why some universities wither while others survive
Academic freedom faces threats worldwide, including in some democracies that have traditionally been viewed as bastions of free universities. In the 21st century, academic freedom has declined in 20 (former) democracies, ranging from slow deterioration to abrupt collapse. Previous research shows that attacks on academic freedom are systematically linked to democratic backsliding. However, in some democracies that experience backsliding, academia …

The origin and contested meaning of freedom in the human right to science
This article traces how the ‘freedom indispensable for scientific research’ was introduced into the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). The review of the drafting history covers ICESCR Article 15.3 and that of its precursor, Article 27 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). It pays particular attention to arguments presented during negotiations over the UDHR (adopted in 1948), as well as over the…
The Academic Freedom Index and Its indicators
The Academic Freedom Index is the first conceptually thorough assessment of academic freedom worldwide and a times series dataset going back to 1900. While some previous datasets exist, they are geographically limited and methodologically or conceptually insufficient to offer a comprehensive picture of the levels of academic freedom across time and space. This paper introduces the new expert-coded dataset that includes the overall Academic Freedo…
Global data on the freedom indispensable for scientific research
Universities striving for reputational gains in the competitive global higher education market rely on international rankings that claim to meaningfully identify ‘world class’ institutions. These rankings turn a blind eye to varying levels of academic freedom. We explore the origin of the first global university ranking in Shanghai, China, and argue that the current system of academic reputation management has been tailored to advance the interes…
Democracy promotion and China
The increasingly prosperous, mighty, and assertive China is arguably the most powerful country blocking democracy today. In addition to withholding democratic rights of one-fifth of the world's population, authoritarian China represents an alternative development model that has gained significant traction. China thus constitutes a challenge to democracy promoters. But does Beijing also countervail democracy promotion by the European Union and the…
An Analysis of China's Statements on Human Rights at the United Nations (2000–2010)
This article examines whether and how the People's Republic of China challenges international human rights norms based on a qualitative analysis of human rights debates at the United Nations in the period 2000–2010. The study differentiates between framing and implication contests and is focused on China's statements on four main issues: the validity of norms; the UN's monitoring of human rights compliance; the relationship between sovereignty an…
