Description

Bringing together leading scholars, this volume is the first of its kind to address the growing global phenomenon of transnational repression in a comparative perspective. Authoritarian regimes in places like China, Russia and Saudi Arabia are infamous for cracking down on domestic opposition movements and democracy activists at home. And, in our age of globalisation, migration and technological development, dictators are increasingly able to extend their authoritarian power over their critics abroad. Using tactics that include surveillance, coercion, harassment and physical violence, transnational repression threatens the lives of democracy defenders, the basic rights of diaspora members and the rule of law in host states.

Her award-winning book, The Arab Spring Abroad: Diaspora Activism Against Authoritarian Regimes (Cambridge University Press, 2022), investigates how and to what extent anti-regime diaspora activists in the US and Britain mobilized to support the 2011 uprisings in Libya, Syria and Yemen. Her work has been published in a variety of venues, including the American Sociological Review, Social Forces, Social Problems, Mobilization: An International Journal, and Comparative Migration Studies. Saipira Furstenberg, PhD, is a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Cofund Research Fellow, at Ca' Foscari, University of Venice. Her project examines host states' responses to transnational repression.

Her research examines international dimensions of authoritarian regimes, state repression, and human rights.
