2024 was election year for more than half of the world’s population. Unfortunately, instead of being the year where democracy gets more consolidated, it may go down in history as the year where autocratic actors succeeded in consolidating their power through democratic mechanisms. If anything, this should be a good reason to up our nonviolent resistance.
In Indonesia, the year 2024 played host to thousands congregating at the “Garuda Biru” (Blue Eagle) rallies. In South Korea, Bangladesh, and Guatemala, civil resistance overthrew leaders that betrayed the spirit of democracy. Meanwhile, amidst repression, citizens of Iran and Afghanistan continued to resist, despite the need to lay low.
