The world is in turmoil. From India to Turkey and from Poland to the United States, authoritarian populists have seized power. As a result democracy itself may now be at risk. Two core components of liberal democracy - individual rights and the popular will - are at war with each other. As the role of money in politics soared and important issues were taken out of public contestation, a system of "rights without democracy" took hold. Populists who rail against this say they want to return power to the people. But in practice they create a system of "democracy without rights."

Europe’s political climate is more hostile to Jews now than at any time in recent memory. Rising anti-Semitism among Europe’s Muslims, especially in the wake of the war in Gaza, is one reason for this change. But to claim that the rise of Muslim anti-Semitism is the main culprit - as the German journalist Jochen Bittner did this week in The New York Times - is to overlook the role played by the European majority.

The Tea Party and its European cousins have emerged from the enduring inability of democratic governments to satisfy their citizens' needs. Today’s populist movements won’t subside until the legitimate grievances driving them have been addressed.

Algumas democracias são altamente homogêneas; outras são marcadas por uma hierarquia racial ou religiosa brutal—e nunca se viu uma democracia ao mesmo tempo diversa e igualitária, que trata membros de diferentes grupos étnico-raciais ou religiosos de forma justa. No entanto, atingir esse objetivo o quanto antes é fundamental para o sucesso da democracia em vários países do mundo. Para Yascha Mounk, este é o grande experimento de nosso tempo.
