How Democracy Changed to Radical Politics with Anne Applebaum

Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and journalist Anne Applebaum, author of Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of Authoritarianism, delves into the significant social, economic, and geopolitical changes that have marked recent decades in the United States. We discuss the emergence of a multicultural society, shifts in social norms around gender and marriage, and the integration of LGBTQ+ individuals. Additionally, we explore America's evolving global influence in light of the rise of China, the 2008 financial crisis, and the mixed outcomes of conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. We also examine the historical patterns of restorative nostalgia and radical politics, drawing parallels with past eras of upheaval in countries like Germany and France, and how these sentiments are shaping contemporary political landscapes across the globe. 00:00 Introduction: Unprecedented Changes in Society 00:53 Shifts in Global Power Dynamics 02:29 Economic Crises and Their Impact 03:06 Military Failures and Loss of Confidence 03:40 Rise of Radical Politics 03:56 Historical Parallels and Nostalgia 05:46 Modern Conservatism and Radicalism 06:41 Conclusion: The Path to Radicalism Full lecture here:    • Anne Applebaum: Twilight of Democracy
