How Democracies Die: What History Reveals About Our Future by Daniel Ziblatt, Steven Levitsky
4.0
good read. no real mention of how private wealth corrodes democracy (some mention of the Koch family). equal treatment of right wing authoritarians with leftist south american leaders reaction against the dictatorships of entrenched wealth.
the 2nd half really delivers tho. focuses on the many decades long campaign of corrosion waged by the conservatives in the US, & the valid reactions of liberals which nonetheless all-together have a struggling-in-quicksand quality. culminating in the major dangers of the orange gross criminal.
well-considered analysis of how to respond & repair our unraveling democracy.
