**Description:**
"Defeating the Dictators" by Charles Dunst addresses the global decline in democracy and the rise of autocracy. In recent years, democracy has faced significant challenges, and autocratic leaders like Viktor Orbán, Xi Jinping, and Vladimir Putin have disrupted democratic institutions and values, both from within and abroad.
The book explores the current state of democracy, the allure of authoritarianism to some disillusioned individuals, and the erosion of democratic foundations. Charles Dunst argues that while autocracy may seem appealing to some, it is not the solution to the world's problems. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of strengthening and improving democratic institutions.
Dunst advocates for making the case for better democracy, combating institutional decay by learning from each other and even from rivals, and addressing the issues within democratic systems. He believes that only when democracies get their own houses in order can they effectively promote and defend democratic values globally and stand up against autocratic regimes.
"Defeating the Dictators" is a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges facing democracy in the modern world and offers insights into how to strengthen democratic values and institutions in the face of autocracy.
