Authoritarianism v. Democracy: Francis Fukuyama on The Year of Elections - Amanpour and Company PBS
Democracy has undergone a major stress test this year, with nearly half the world's voting population heading to the polls in a time of democratic backsliding and growing extremism.
Francis Fukuyama, senior fellow at Stanford University's Freeman Spogli Institute, joined Walter Isaacson to speak about the danger of taking democracy for granted, and -- following his recent trip to Ukraine -- how he believes the war there might end. - Originally aired on September 19, 2024.
