Wow, what great timing, I wrote about this today: https://acoup.blog/2020/10/30/fireside-friday-october-30-2020/ … This only holds true if you use the artificially small modern democracy sample; get into ancient democracies, this 'emprical matter' turns on its head and we see that democratic deconsolidation was common.https://twitter.com/shadihamid/status/1322203799008743430 …

Limited info though. Like am web addicted so have scanned your tweets! You a distinguished scholar of the classics, think is correct? Me some Black guy--not that it matters--in Georgia in a mental health program. Knowledge IS power. Access to knowledge is empowering. Woh! Cool!

The longest modern democracy, the United States, had the civil war which seems to have had many of these features. It just got lucky in being able to reverse the polarization after a bad period

It is not a clean example because both sides kept some form of democracy, but there were shifts in alarming directions with things like rights (and a non-trivial number of people hurt).

Democracy is fragile bc it relies on meta-laws of behaviour: ppl in charge must act for good of all, not their own. Autocracies can just use power to crack down on dissent- but too much terror, ppl will rise up bc of it in spite, so it too falls.
