Theo Horesh joins Julian for a discussion of his new book The Fascism This Time: and the Global Future of Democracy. They discuss Trump and the wave of right wing leaders who have taken power across the globe and how this relates to human development individually and collectively. And they discuss why such a reaction seemingly against globalism is taking place, even as our world becomes more and more interconnected and our mutual cooperation is more essential than ever before in order to face the global challenges confronting us, including Climate Change, Coronavirus and human rights.
