When Conservatives Endanger Democracy

2 February 2021

Political scientist Daniel Ziblatt is best known for co-authoring the 2018 bestseller How Democracies Die. The book is an indictment of US Republicans and their failure to resist Donald Trump. Daniel’s work also examines how conservative parties have largely determined whether democracy thrived, as in Britain, or died, as in Weimar Germany. In this episode he discusses dilemmas facing Europe’s modern-day conservative parties, including the German Christian Democratic Union and the European People’s Party.
