This insightful book evaluates how to teach autocracy and authoritarian politics, providing actionable strategies for instructors regarding course content and design, teaching tools, and ethical questions. Expert contributors present practical templates and in-class exercises, examining questions that are commonly discussed, as well as those that often fall under the radar. Chapters discuss teaching methods such as the use of games, integration of theory, global panel data, and student-centered learning, alongside how to teach in different contexts across democratic and autocratic societies. The book further highlights classic works on autocracy and perspectives beyond the canon, such as studies of informal institutions and parastatal organizations, giving teachers the tools required to provide well-rounded and engaging courses on autocracy. Teaching Autocracy and Autocratic Politics is a key resource for educators looking to produce an effective and ethically sensitive programme on autocracy. Instructors teaching classes on comparative politics and political science more broadly will also find the volume useful.
