Como as Democracias Morrem
Book • 2018
The book examines how democracies can die through the gradual erosion of political norms and the undermining of critical institutions such as the judiciary and the free press.
Levitsky and Ziblatt compare the rise of Donald Trump to historical examples of democratic breakdowns in Europe and Latin America, highlighting the importance of mutual toleration and institutional forbearance in maintaining democratic stability.
They argue that contemporary democracies are more likely to be undermined by elected leaders who exploit democratic institutions for authoritarian purposes rather than through violent revolutions or military coups.
