Democratic development has typically been understood through three frameworks of transition, consolidation and backsliding. Conventional frameworks claim that regime questions are “settled” at founding moments and therefore key actors achieve regime consensus and none have incentive to defect. Join us to discuss a contrasting framework for understanding change in democracies which centers on the idea of ‘democracy as disequilibrium.’
