Main Page

This "Wiki" collates resources for scholars that address threats to science. It accompanies The Anti-Autocracy Handbook: A Scholars’ Guide to Navigating Democratic Backsliding.

Here you will find supporting resources for scholars around topics discussed in the handbook.

This Wiki is a living resource, with a community of scholars contributing to regular updates. It is maintained by volunteers who are co-ordinated by the SciBeh initiative for collective science communication and knowledge management.

We also have a volunteer effort to translate the Anti-Autocracy Handbook. If you would like to help with this, find out more on our translations page!

Pages in blue have resources ready. Pages in red are under construction and will be live soon.
