Authoritarianism is spreading — often behind elections, institutions, and democratic language. The Tyranny Tracker helps cut through the confusion by identifying which regimes are democratic, hybrid authoritarian, or fully authoritarian.
Created by the Human Rights Foundation with the support of The Reynolds Foundation, the Tyranny Tracker is a democracy index designed not just to measure tyranny, but to inform action.
