Product Information

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A brilliant book, wise and nuanced." -- Nicholas Kristof, New York Times "Comprehensive, enlightening, and terrifyingly timely." -- New York Times Book Review "Cool and persuasive... How Democracies Die comes at exactly the right moment." -- The Washington Post Donald Trump's presidency has raised a question that many of us never thought we'd be asking: Is our democracy in danger? Harvard professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt have spent more than twenty years studying the breakdown of democracies in Europe and Latin America, and they believe the answer is yes. Democracy no longer ends with a bang--in a revolution or military coup--but with a whimper: the slow, steady weakening of critical institutions, such as the judiciary and the press, and the gradual erosion of long-standing political norms. The good news is that there are several exit ramps on the road to authoritarianism. The bad news is that, by electing Trump, we have already passed the first one. Drawing on decades of research and a wide range of historical and global examples, from 1930s Europe to contemporary Hungary, Turkey, and Venezuela, to the American South during Jim Crow, Levitsky and Ziblatt show how democracies die--and how ours can be saved.

Reviews
"Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt have offered a brilliant diagnosis of the most important issue facing our world: Can democracy survive? With clinical precision and an extraordinary grasp of history, they point to the warning signs of decay and define the obligations of those who would preserve free government. If there is an urgent book for you to read at this moment, it is How Democracies Die." -- E.J. Dionne Jr. , co-author of One Nation After Trump "Levitsky and Ziblatt are leading scholars of democracy in other parts of the world, who with great energy and integrity now apply their expertise to the current problems of the United States. The reader feels the intellectual excitement, and also the political warning, as the authors draw the connections from their own vast knowledge to the chaos that we experience each day." -- Timothy Snyder , author of On Tyranny "We live in perilous times. Anyone who is concerned about the future of American democracy should read this brisk, accessible book. Anyone who is not concerned should definitely read it." --Daron Acemoglu , co-author of Why Nations Fail "All Americans who care about the future of their country should read this magisterial, compelling book, which sweeps across the globe and through history to analyze how democracies die. The result is an unforgettable framework for diagnosing the state of affairs here at home and our prospects for recovery." -- Danielle Allen , author of Our Declaration and Cuz "Two years ago, a book like this could not have been written: two leading political scientists who are expert in the breakdown of democracy in other parts of the world using that knowledge to inform Americans of the dangers their democracy faces today. We owe the authors a debt of thanks for bringing their deep understanding to bear on the central political issue of the day." --Francis Fukuyama , author of Political Order and Political Decay "In this brilliant historical synthesis, Levitsky and Ziblatt show how the actions of elected leaders around the world have paved the road to democratic failure, and why the United States is now vulnerable to this same downward spiral. This book should be widely and urgently read as a clarion call to restore the shared beliefs and practices--beyond our formal constitution--that constitute the essential 'guardrails' for preserving democracy." -- Larry Diamond , author of The Spirit of Democracy, "Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt have offered a brilliant diagnosis of the most important issue facing our world: Can democracy survive?

    A must read before the 2024 general election!

    Essential reading before the November general election! Especially relevant is the more recent companion title by the same authors: "Tyranny of the Minority" Published in 2023, I'd suggest reading this title first.

    A Must Read Guide For Understanding And Saving Democracy

    An absolutely wonderful book that details the dangers that Democracies face, from both inside and outside forces, and what must be done to prevent them from falling and transitioning into Autocracies, Theocracies, and Fascism. We are the gatekeepers of freedom, and its survival or demise rests solely in our hands.

    This is critical information

    I believe it should be required reading for all members and potential members of congress. The current political status is placing our democracy at risk, but I don't think most of them realize it. It is good for all citizens also.
