#BookReview for "How Democracies Die"by Steven Levitsky, Daniel Ziblatt
Recommended - if you never want to sleep soundly again
Discusses countries like Venezuela, Egypt, Hungary that slipped into authoritarianism. Close calls in the US. What causes democracies to die and what the safeguards are. Obviously motivated by what's on all our minds right now - Trump and his authoritarian agenda.
Wish there was more of a solution than "let's hope the parties put the country above self-interest"
