They draw on many examples - from the Capitol riots to Edwardian Britain, from 1930s France to present-day Thailand - to explain why political parties turn against democracy and how to predict when this will happen.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn this razor-sharp analysis, Levitsky and Ziblatt offer an urgent warning about right-wing efforts to undermine the very foundations of the American political system. Few societies have ever achieved multiracial democracy, but even the prospect of this change can spark an authoritarian backlash whose dangerous effects will resonate long into the future. Donald Trump’s astonishing lead in the run-up to the Republican nomination, even after his indictment and imprisonment on charges of election interference, is evidence of that.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith its attention on factors from election losses to demographic change and voting rights, its urgent call for a reform of our politics to balance the need for majority rule with the need for minority protections, and a citizens’ movement to put enough pressure on lawmakers to act before it’s too late, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eTyranny of the Minority\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis a must-read for everyone keen to see more vibrant democracy – and to understand where future threats may come from.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e‘Provocative and readable’\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDavid Runciman on \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eHow Democracies Die\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e'A useful primer on the importance of norms, institutional restraints and civic participation in maintaining a democracy'\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarack Obama on \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eHow Democracies Die\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Viking Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48328299512058,"sku":"D6W8OU4SBPEL","price":700.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/D6W8OU4SBPEL_1.jpg?v=1724938731","url":"https:\/\/versoz.co.in\/products\/d6w8ou4sbpel","provider":"VERSOZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
