Autocratization and Democratization in the Global South (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Thomas Richter

Inhalt: In this seminar an extensive overview about research and debates on autocratization and democratization looking at the Global South will be given. How are democratic and authoritarian political regimes defined and measured? Which recent debates on autocratization and democratization exist? What have been main drivers of these processes since the early 1990s and what regional similarities and differences occurred? Which political systems around the globe persisted to the rise of democracy? And what are the tools of authoritarian leaders to stay in power? How do we understand and explain the recent resurgence of authoritarian politics? And what does this mean for the future of democracy in the Global South?

wöchentlich | Montag | 14:15 - 15:45 | 13.10.2025 - 30.01.2026 | C 12.101 Seminarraum

Inhalt: Introduction to Global Security: Threats to International Peace and Security offers a rigorous examination of the evolving challenges facing international security in the 21st century. Grounded in both classical and contemporary theoretical perspectives, the course engages students with key threats to international peace and security, including intrastate and interstate conflict, terrorism, nuclear proliferation, forced migration, and climate change. Through the analysis of real-world case studies, students will explore the underlying causes and consequences of these threats, as well as the effectiveness of international responses—including diplomacy, economic statecraft, and the use of force—in maintaining and promoting global peace and security.
