When and how do states intervene in elections in other countries?
Foreign interveners may aim to further the process of clean
elections, or they may support the campaign of a candidate they
like. It could also be in their best interest to do both at the
same time. Bubeck and Marinov systematically analyze various
scenarios using a dataset covering more than three hundred
elections in over a hundred countries. They show both theoretically
and empirically that states with a liberal mission, such as the
United States, combine promoting democracy with helping their
political allies win office. Political divisions invite foreign
interventions, and foreign interference, in turn, makes targeted
societies more polarized along political lines. Whilst the authors
argue that foreign interventions do not always harm democracy and
may even help the cause of free elections, they also show how
elections can turn into proxy wars, in which powerful states
compete against each other, through their local allies.
