6. Injustice and Absence of Accountability
Authoritarian regimes may have weak or non-existent legal frameworks to protect women, children, and vulnerable adults.
This can lead to a lack of safeguards against
- domestic violence,
- child abuse,
- exploitation,
- trafficking,
- and discrimination, further endangering their well-being.
7. Suppression
Overall, authoritarianism’s suppression of
- personal freedoms,
- gender inequality,
- abuse of power,
- suppression of dissent,
- repression of civil society,
and lack of legal protections make it particularly dangerous for women, children, and vulnerable adults, exacerbating their vulnerability and limiting their ability to seek justice and protection.
