Electoral autocracy

Electoral autocracy is a hybrid regime, in which democratic institutions are imitative and adhere to authoritarian methods. In these regimes, regular elections are held, but they are accused of failing to reach democratic standards of freedom and fairness.[1][2]

Electoral autocracies around the world

Global Political Regimes, 2023

Hungary under Orbán government

In September 2022[3] the European Parliament passed a resolution that due to "a breakdown in democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights in Hungary" the country turned into "a hybrid regime of electoral autocracy".[4][2][5]

India under Modi government

In 2021, the Swedish political research institute Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) lowered India's ranking from flawed democracy to electoral autocracy, citing alleged increasing nationalist rhetoric and diminishing freedom of expression under the government of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its Prime Minister Narendra Modi. United States-based Freedom House also lowered Indian democracy ranking from free democracy to a "partially free democracy".[6][7][8] In the same year, Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance classified India as a backsliding democracy, citing similar reasons.[9][10] According to The Guardian, the Indian government dismissed the reports, saying self-appointed people cannot be custodian of democracy for India,[11] but expressing concern about the reputational damage caused by the changing designations.[12]
