Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election produced
the biggest political scandal in a generation, marking the
beginning of an ongoing attack on democracy. In the run-up to the
2020 election, Russia was found to have engaged in more
"information operations," a practice that has been increasingly
adopted by other countries. In Election Interference, Jens David
Ohlin makes the case that these operations violate international
law, not as a cyberwar or a violation of sovereignty, but as a
profound assault on democratic values protected by the
international legal order under the rubric of self-determination.
He argues that, in order to confront this new threat to democracy,
countries must prohibit outsiders from participating in elections,
enhance transparency on social media platforms, and punish domestic
actors who solicit foreign interference. This important book should
be read by anyone interested in protecting election integrity in
our age of social media disinformation.
