Emilia Simison presents her book on authoritarian legislatures in conversation with Ben Noble and Felix Wiebrecht
About this Event

Why are legislatures in some authoritarian regimes more powerful than in others? Why does their influence on policies and politics vary across dictatorships? Alejandro Bonvecchi and Emilia Simison answer these questions in (Cambridge University Press, 2026) analysing novel datasets and primary sources from past dictatorships in Argentina, Brazil, and Spain.

Join the conversation between one the authors, Emilia Simison (QMUL), Ben Noble (Associate Professor of Russian Politics, UCL) and Felix Wiebrecht (Lecturer in Politics, Liverpool) to learn more about the arguments and findings of this book. A reception will follow.
