Ever wondered how economic, political and social inequalities between ethnic groups can lead to autocratization?

Just finished #EPSA2023 EPSA where I discussed great papers and presented one dissertation paper on ethnic inequalities & autocratization and a co-authored work with Zdravko Veljanov & Mehmet Yavuz on ethnic party bans and perceived discrimination in Sub-Saharan Africa! 😀
