In the twenty-first century democracy is threatened like never before. Drawing on insightful lessons from across history -- from Pinochet's murderous Chilean regime to Erdogan's quiet dismantling in Turkey -- Harvard professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt explain why democracies fail, how leaders like Trump subvert them today and what each of us can do to protect our democratic rights.
