Recenzii
Applebaum's
reflections
on
the
anti-democratic
pandemic
sweeping
our
world
offer
an
extraordinary
mix
of
personal
witness
and
dispassionate
historical
analysis....
It's
unlikely
that
anyone
will
ever
give
us
more
sensitive
or
revealing
insights
on
this
question
Heretics make the best writers. ... Applebaum can bring a candle into the darkness of the populist right ... her writing is an arsenal that stores the sharpest weapons to hand.
Applebaum's progress ...has yielded an enviable supply of raw material for her narrative. She mines her sources doggedly....Twilight of Democracyis a rather penetrating work of ethnography
Advancing her arguments with eloquence and personal testimony, Applebaum passionately decries the corrosion of liberal, open-society values in the last three decades.
written with deep insight, experience and wisdom. Definitely a very important book for understanding our troubled times and the fragility of our democracies
Anne Applebaum'sTwilight of Democracyis the most important non-fiction book of the year because it asks the most urgent question: why is the right wing in the West moving so far to the right? Why is it, at this point in history, so drawn to authoritarianism? Why has it given up on democracy?'
this engrossing account ... is a political book; it is also intensely personal, and the more powerful for it.
Applebaum, long an authority on the abuses of Communist and post-Communist Eastern Europe, in her new bookTwilight of Democracyis unsparing in exposing the moral bankruptcy of Trumpian Republicanism. Her sharp pen is as persuasive as any in presenting the idea of the "west" as a morally serious project-and one whose loss we may come to mourn.
A brilliant writer who sheds light on the most disturbing political phenomenon of our era: the rise of rightwing authoritarianism around the world... a cry of alarm and a call to arms.... We have been warned.
readable, eloquent and passionate ... Applebaum knows what the enemy looks like from the inside, and how it thinks. This book may only be a start. We should cherish her. I think she has a lot more she can tell us.
This richly informed book enlarges her account of the enormous peril in which the democracy we took so casually for granted now stands.
From Brexit Britain and Donald Trump's America to the cynical politics of Poland and Hungary, she feels beset by a new chauvinist right that has no regard for rules, truth or institutions.Ms Applebaum evokes an acute sense of betrayal as people she trusted turn against her, quicker than she thought possible. Her personal story is a parable of what can happen to alliances in the absence of a common adversary, and when the hardships such enemies inflicted fade from memory.
This is an illuminating political memoir about the break-up of the political tribe that won the Cold War.
Equal parts memoir, reportage, and history, this sobering account of the roots and forms of today's authoritarianism, by one of its most accomplished observers, is meant as a warning to everyone. ... critically important for its muscular, oppositionist attack on the new right from within conservative ranks-and for the well-documented warning it embodies. The author's views are especially welcome becauseshe is a deliberate thinker and astute observerrather than just the latest pundit or politico. In the spirit of Julien Benda, Hannah Arendt, and Theodor Adorno, Applebaum seeks to understand what makes the new right "more Bolshevik than Burkean."...A knowledgeable, rational, necessarily dark take on dark realities.
