DESCRIPTION:The Proliferation of Chinese AI Surveillance Systems\n\n \n\nGo
 vernments worldwide\, including over half of liberal democracies\, are emb
 racing AI surveillance\, with smart city platforms as the most common form
 . While often promoted as urban innovations\, the Chinese smart-city model
  primarily functions as a surveillance system that can be abused to consol
 idate executive power\, weaken political competition\, violate privacy\, s
 uppress expression and assembly\, and entrench discrimination.\n\n \n\nIts
  global spread has expanded from 47 countries in 2019 to 88 by 2025 — an
  87 percent increase. CEIP reported that military spending is a predictor 
 for the adoption of AI surveillance\, while regime type is not. This study
  uses binary logistic regression to examine what drives the adoption of Ch
 inese AI surveillance. It finds that domestic repression and support for C
 hina’s Belt and Road Initiative are the main predictors\, in addition to
  military spending. While the United States and its allies have responded 
 through export controls\, technology restrictions\, and alternative infras
 tructure initiatives\, democratic nations must also develop new collective
  strategies to defend democracy and counter rising repression.\n\nCo-Autho
