How Democracies Die: What History Reveals About Our Future by Daniel Ziblatt, Steven Levitsky

4.0

Picked up this book because I needed to learn about democracy, and this was not the right book for learning the fundamentals of democracy. This book delves into different instances where democracies are overthrown by, e.g. tyrants, reflecting through historical accounts of how said democracy is overthrown. What makes this book interesting is how easy it was written even for a layperson like me
