Michael Ignatieff on the Challenge of Illiberal Democracy and Capitalist Authoritarianism

In 1989, there was hope that democracy, open society, and globalization would advance together - that liberty was indivisible. Professor Michael Ignatieff of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government discussed how these propositions turned out instead in his talk “Is Liberty Divisible? The Challenge of Illiberal Democracy and Capitalist Authoritarianism” at CEU March 16. The lecture was part of the Frontiers of Democracy series.
