DESCRIPTION:Abstract:Authoritarian regimes in countries like Syria\, Egypt 
 and China are infamous for cracking down on domestic opposition movements 
 and democracy activists. Yet\, the repression of dissent and civil society
  is not contained within a state’s borders. In the&nbsp\;contemporary&nbsp
 \;age of globalization\, migration and technological development\, dictato
 rs are increasingly able to extend their authoritarian power over their cr
 itics abroad through transnational repression practices. Using tactics tha
 t include surveillance\, physical violence\, and the punishment of family 
 members at home\, transnational repression threatens the lives of democrac
 y defenders\, the human and civil rights of diaspora communities\, and the
  rule of law in host-countries like the United States. Moss' draw on her e
 xtensive research to highlight how previously overlooked forms of repressi
 on impact "voice after exit" in refugee and emigrant communities\, how hos
 t states contribute to the problem\, and what can be done about it.&nbsp\;
