DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nThe International Transmission of Democratic Values: Evidence from Afri
 can Migration to Europe&nbsp;\n\n\nAbstract:\nThis paper investigates the e
 ffect of rising anti-immigrant sentiment in European democratic host countr
 ies on support for democracy in African migrants’ origin communities. We pr
 opose a novel methodology to estimate migration stocks from sub-national ar
 eas of origin to any possible country in the world based on Google trends d
 ata. We use these data alongside measures of anti-immigrant sentiment at de
 stination to study origin communities' exposure to anti-immigrant sentiment
 . We show that exposure to greater anti- immigrant sentiment led to a deter
 ioration in support for democracy among African citizens and the effect is 
 concentrated in non-democratic countries. We conclude that rising anti-immi
 grant sentiment in Western democracies has the potential to harm democratic
  progress in Africa.\n
