Description

Books & Books and TBAM presents Anne Applebaum: Autocracy, Inc.

in association with the George P. Hanley Democracy Center at University of Miami.

From the Pulitzer-prize winning, New York Times bestselling author, an alarming account of how autocracies work together to undermine the democratic world, and how we should organize to defeat them

We think we know what an autocratic state looks like: There is an all-powerful leader at the top. There are evil collaborators, and maybe some brave dissidents.

But in the 21st century, that bears little resemblance to reality. Nowadays, autocracies are underpinned not by one dictator, but by sophisticated networks pounding home the same messages about the weakness of democracy and the evil of America.

The members of Autocracy, Inc, aren’t linked by a unifying ideology, like communism, but rather a common desire for power, wealth, and impunity. In this urgent treatise, Anne Applebaum calls for the democracies to fundamentally
reorient their policies to fight a new kind of threat.
