Conceptual Framework
The study adopts a multidisciplinary approach, drawing on concepts and theories from political science, international relations, and comparative politics. It conceptualises authoritarian promotion as a deliberate strategy employed by authoritarian regimes to shape the political environment in their favor, while authoritarian diffusion refers to the spread of authoritarian practices, institutions, and ideas from one region to another.
The study identifies various mechanisms of authoritarian promotion and diffusion, including diplomatic pressure, economic coercion, military intervention, and the spread of authoritarian ideologies through media and propaganda.

- Middle East and North Africa: The analysis explores the spread of authoritarianism in the region following the Arab Spring, the role of regional powers like Saudi Arabia and Iran, and the influence of external actors.
- Eastern Europe: The study investigates the Russian government's efforts to promote authoritarianism in former Soviet states, through political and economic support for authoritarian leaders.
- Latin America: The analysis examines the rise of left-wing authoritarian regimes in the region, the role of economic populism, and the challenges to democratic institutions.
Case Studies
The study presents detailed case studies to illustrate the mechanisms and consequences of authoritarian promotion and diffusion. These case studies include:
- Russia's Annexation of Crimea: The study examines the role of authoritarian promotion in justifying Russia's actions and the implications for regional security.
