America Votes 2024: The Transatlantic Impact
GMF covers two important aspects of the 2024 US presidential election: the transatlantic impact and autocratic threats to US democracy.
In the United States, autocratic actors—foreign and domestic—are using information manipulation, malign finance, artificial intelligence, and vulnerabilities in election infrastructure to achieve geopolitical aims, profit financially, or stoke chaos. In Europe, the outcome of November’s vote will significantly impact the transatlantic partnership and other alliances just as the global order is shifting.
This page collects selected articles by GMF experts addressing the impact of the 2024 US election on transatlantic policy debates, and it offers insights into evolving threats to US democracy.
