In page Democratic backsliding:

"

Various external factors are often credited with the democratic backsliding, and accompanying hardening of authoritarian regimes,[3] in the region, including the rising influence of China and other authoritarian states, the decline of democracy promotion by the US and other actors, and the worldwide increase in misinformation and political polarization due to social media.[4] Some scholars, however, consider domestic factors to be more significant causally. Regardless of causation, multiple forms of democratic backsliding can be observed to have taken place in East Asia from the mid-2010s to the present.[citation needed]
