Our reporting showed that dissidents are building on a deposit of accumulated knowledge. voice-verified

On that point, in order to bring out the most that we can in a pretty short time, I wanna mention some of the kind of common strategies and lessons that recur throughout the book. voice-verified

So maybe I'll identify voice-verified

a a theme and then maybe give you a line that captures it and let you kind of offer responses or reflection. voice-verified

So um you describe a study that calculates that a backsliding country, right? voice-verified

A country that undergoing democratic backsliding as the United States obviously is, um, its odds of halting the slide voice-verified

are something like seven percent when it relies exclusively on institutional methods like elections and litigation and legislative action, but rises to something like a toss-up with nonviolent civil resistance. voice-verified

Is that about right? voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified
