Webinar: Democratic Backsliding and Resilience: South Korea’s December 3 Martial Law Crisis
Lessons from Global Democratic Resistance is a public panel series that brings together frontline activists, civic leaders, institutional actors, and field‑informed scholars to examine how democratic actors have resisted and responded to democratic backsliding across countries.
The series aims to identify practical lessons and comparative insights for those defending democracy today and is organized in collaboration among the Kellogg Institute, the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation at Harvard University, the Cornell Center on Global Democracy; Perry World House at the University of Pennsylvania; the Democratic Futures Project at the University of Virginia; Stanford’s Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law; and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
