Abstract:
Despite growing alarm about the decline of democracy worldwide, assessing the extent to which democratic erosion is occurring and, perhaps more importantly, how it is happening is difficult because of data limitations at fine-grained levels of analysis. In this paper, we describe and demonstrate the utility of the Democratic Erosion Event Dataset (DEED), which tracks specific events related to democratic backsliding and authoritarian consolidation around the world, with coverage of 156 countries between 2000 and 2023. The data are publicly disseminated on our website for analysis across regions and over time. We describe the data generation process and validate the dataset by comparing it to complementary data sources. Finally, we discuss how DEED can be used by scholars, policymakers, and journalists to better understand not only if democratic erosion is happening but how the process unfolds.

Effects of EDTA on End-Point Detection Methods
In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a result, EDTA...

Deconvolution involves several mathematical techniques to derive the impulse response. One common approach is polynomial division. In this method, the input and output sequences are treated as coefficients of...
