How Democracies Die by Steven Levitsky examines the vulnerability of democratic systems to authoritarianism. Levitsky, drawing on historical and contemporary case studies, argues that democracies do not always collapse through violent coups but often erode slowly, through the subversion of democratic norms and institutions. He highlights how leaders can exploit constitutional frameworks, weaken opposition, and concentrate power, leading to a gradual breakdown of democracy. The book warns of the dangers posed by populist movements and authoritarian leaders and provides insight into the factors that contribute to democratic decline. It also offers recommendations for safeguarding democracy in the modern age.
