What is transnational repression?

The extension of a state's repressive reach (government sponsored coercive and forceful behavior directed to influence political behavior and/or thought) beyond its borders.

The Transnational Repression Project

The Transnational Repression Project (TRP) is an academic initiative, housed at the University of Michigan’s Center for Political Studies, focused on studying transnational repression. The Project goals include:

1) Establish transnational repression as a sub-field of study,
2) Convene scholarly meetings to advance research and publications,
3) Build a repository for research and data on transnational repression,

4) Act as a bridge between the academic and policy communities working on this topic, and
​5) Shed light on contemporary cases
