The Cutting Edge of Sharp Power
When it comes to the impact of authoritarian sharp power on the future of democracy, perhaps no other domain is as pivotal as that of technology. Technological interdependence has enabled modernizing authoritarians to reach across borders to censor and manipulate public discourse, sharpen polarization, and undermine democracy. From "safe-city" surveillance projects to state-linked disinformation campaigns on social-media platforms, authoritarians…
Redefining Development
Over the last decade, China has been working to reshape the norms, architecture, and practice of development assistance. It has emerged as an alternative source of infrastructure financing for many countries of the global South, and has become an institutional player through its Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and New Development Bank (NDB).

But political science scholarship has provided little support for this conventional wisdom, and a number of case studies from around the world show that authoritarian regimes are finding ways to control and counter the political impact of Internet use. While the long-term political impact of the Internet remains an open question, we argue that these stra…

China's new media sector
As China's media sector evolves, new domestic Internet companies are playing an increasingly complex role in information aggregation and dissemination, expanding into areas traditionally overseen by the state propaganda apparatus. Not surprisingly, these companies find themselves caught between satisfying market demand for interesting and timely information and appeasing central government demands for political correctness. Many companies have ch…
