Defeating the Dictators: A conversation with Charles Dunst
Back in March, we had the pleasure of Speaking with Charles Dunst about his new book, Defeating the Dictators: How Democracy Can Prevail in the Age of the Strongman.
In a world where democracy is in decline and autocracy is on the rise, Dunst argues autocracy is not the solution despite being an attractive alternative for those disillusioned with current democratic institutions. He argues that the only way to defeat dictators is to have better democracy.
We cover his life, his book, and his fandom for New York sports teams on this episode of The Looking Glass.
