Liberal Democracy Debate
Be it resolved, liberal democracy will not survive the 21st century
Authoritarian regimes are experience a resurgence globally. Various strains of ethno-nationalism-populism are displacing liberalism in countries like Brazil, Hungary, Israel, Poland, Russia, and among significant segments of the voting publics of the United States and the UK. The rise of an anti-liberal order globally has many observers wondering if the core tenants and ideals of liberal democracy, which dominated western politics for the latter half of the 20th century, can survive the 21st century.
