Moreover, it analyzes the distinct patterns and manifestations of democratic erosion in different regions and countries, highlighting commonalities and divergences in its trajectories. Furthermore, this article evaluates existing strategies and interventions aimed at safeguarding democracy, such as institutional reforms, civic education, media literacy, and international cooperation.
