DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p><em><strong>The International Transmission of Democratic Values: Evidenc
 e from African Migration to Europe&nbsp;</strong></em></p><p>Abstract:</p><
 p style="text-align: justify;">This paper investigates the effect of rising
  anti-immigrant sentiment in European democratic host countries on support 
 for democracy in African migrants’ origin communities. We propose a novel m
 ethodology to estimate migration stocks from sub-national areas of origin t
 o any possible country in the world based on Google trends data. We use the
 se data alongside measures of anti-immigrant sentiment at destination to st
 udy origin communities' exposure to anti-immigrant sentiment. We show that 
 exposure to greater anti- immigrant sentiment led to a deterioration in sup
 port for democracy among African citizens and the effect is concentrated in
  non-democratic countries. We conclude that rising anti-immigrant sentiment
  in Western democracies has the potential to harm democratic progress in Af
 rica.</p>
