About the Author

Jan Teorell is a distinguished political scientist and professor at Lund University, where he has dedicated his career to unraveling the complexities of democratic transitions and institutional development. With a keen focus on comparative politics, Teorell's research explores the factors that drive regime change, electoral integrity, and the quality of government across diverse global contexts. His seminal work, Determinants of Democratization: Explaining Regime Change in the World, 1972–2006, offers a rigorous empirical analysis of democratization patterns, drawing on extensive datasets to identify key determinants of political transformation. A prolific scholar, Teorell has published widely in leading academic journals and contributed to the broader discourse on why democracies emerge, endure, or falter in the modern era.
