Hosting this show is professor Victor Lapuente, and in this episode, he is joined by Giovanni Capoccia, Professor of Comparative Politics in the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of Oxford.
Victor and Giovanni will discuss how democracies respond to extremism in European and US politics. For example, how we should understand the relationship between Putin and Berlusconi, why radical right parties have taken up the space left by communist parties in European countries, if we are in a critical juncture of democracy right now, and whether democracy in the US runs a risk of extinction or not.
