Abstract Highlights
•An ‘extraterritorial gap’ in political geography and comparative politics impedes analysis of authoritarian power abroad.
• Authoritarian rule from the home state continues to be exercised over populations abroad.
•It treats nationals abroad as subjects or outlaws; patriots or traitors; clients or brokers, but never as citizens.
•Authoritarianism should be studied as a mode of governing people through a set of practices, not as a territorial regime.
