The new publication by Libertarian Club – Libek, “Abusing the People: Global Challenges of Authoritarian Populism“ is now available to international audiences.
In the context of the rise of populist parties and movements in Europe and the United States in the past few years, this publication brings together authors from 12 countries to analyze the rise of populist ideologies, movements and parties, the roles of civil society and governments, and ways the international freedom movement should respond to these challenges and effectively counter the influence of authoritarian populists globally.
The publication includes exclusive articles and interviews by leading experts and academics, such as Anne Applebaum, Tom Palmer and Peter Pomerantsev, but also activists, civil society leaders, politicians, and academics from Denmark, Ukraine, Spain, Poland, Italy, Hungary, Greece, United Kingdom, Spain, Turkey, and Venezuela.
The articles and interviews, written in popular style, draw conclusions from the extensive experience and research of the authors and aim to provide a basis for a better understanding of the rise of populist political actors and their popularity and provide the international liberty movement with a foundation for ensuring a future of freedom by effective countering of authoritarian populist agendas.
