Happy to release this new(!) data we collected at the @vdeminstitute tracking responses to #Covid19 and the potential impact on #democracy. Many thanks to those who helped with coding! A short thread: 1/4
We capture risk of #PandemicBacksliding using data from 142 countries coded in early April. Our data show how #Covid19 responses may threaten #democracy and #freedom. We find that 48 countries are at high risk and another 34 countries are at medium risk. 2/4
The good news? In 47 countries, #Covid19 responses pose little to no risk of inducing #PandemicBacksliding. Emergency measures can respond proportionately without undermining accountability mechanisms (e.g. legislature, courts, civil society, media). 3/4
