Really cool application of the multi-dimensional dynamic Bayesian factor analysis model that @DevinCaughey, Tomoya Sasaki, and I have been working on to model democracy around the world. Very rough, beta version of the R package here: github.com/devincaughey/dbmm
Here’s my swan song for The Economist on the state of “democracy” globally. We apply a Bayesian factor analysis model from @cwarshaw & @DevinCaughey to data from V-Dem, @annemeng_, @anthlittle + others and find 2 distinct components of decline v stability

How did the conflict in #Sudan start? And how do we stop it? @Kodouda and I analyze the context and possible solutions in this @ForeignAffairs piece. tl;dr - we shouldn't have trusted Sudan's military generals to shepherd our democratic transition, and shouldn't do so again
