Russia, Europe, America A New York Times Editors´ Choice Shortlisted for the 2019 Lionel Gelber Prize A brilliant and disturbing analysis, which should be read by anyone wishing to understand the political crisis currently engulfing the world. Yuval Noah Harari, author of Sapiens Combining topical reporting with delvings into the history of ideas and some political-philosophical musing in the authors own voice, this relatively short book covers a vast canvas. . . . A roller-coaster world calls for a news editors skill in processing facts and a philosophers ability to dissect ideologies. Snyder has both. The Economist The Road to Unfreedom is a rich and complex book, punctuated by epigrams that cast heroic clarity upon the disturbing distance the United States has already traveled to the sinister destination in Snyders title. If some of Snyders assessment seems overstated or premature, he can powerfully reply: He has perceived more accurately than his critics what has already happened. He has earned the right to be heard on what may lie ahead. David Frum, The Atlantic The Road to Unfreedom offers a brief, potent and carefully documented history of Vladimir Putins consolidation of power in Russia, Russias invasion of Ukraine, and Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The Chicago Tribune We are living in dangerous times, Timothy Snyder argues forcefully and eloquently in his new book. . . . To understand Putin, Snyder argues persuasively, you must understand his ideas. . . . The Road to Unfreedom is a good wake-up call. Margaret MacMillan, The New York Times Book Review Deluged by ugly headlines, readers need books that force us to pause, step back and understand how America arrived at this chaotic moment. One of the best such books this year is historian Timothy Snyders essential, penetrating look at how toxic ideas, autocratic power and fake news spread from Russia into Ukraine, Western Europe and now to the White House. At a time when the politics of apocalypse haunt American democracy, Snyder helps unpack how we got hereand, maybe, how we can get out. Lucas Wittmann, TIME ´´Snyders horror at what has happened in Russia and at the risks to the US and Europe gives his writing energy and passion. He is unsparing in his indictment of Putins Russia. . . .But he is also clear-eyed about the weaknesses of American society that have made the US vulnerable to Russian intervention and domestic populism.´´ Gideon Rachman, The Financial Times ´´Essential reading. . . . Chilling and unignorable.´´ The Guardian Of all the books that seek to explain the current crisis of Western liberal democracy, none is more eloquent or frightening than Snyders The Road to Unfreedom. Foreign Affairs Brilliant. . . . Bleak and eloquent. . . . Snyders account of the Trump ascendancy, and the many helping hands given from Russia, is vividly and insightfully told. Edward Lucas, The Times (London) Praise for Timothy Snyders On Tyranny We are rapidly ripening for fascism. This American writer leaves us with no illusions about ourselves. Svetlana Alexievich, Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature A slim book that fits alongside your pocket Constitution and feels only slightly less vital. . . . Grounded in history yet imbued with the fierce urgency of what now. Carlos Lozada, The Washington Post Snyder reasons with unparalleled clarity, throwing the past and future into sharp relief. He has written the rare kind of book that can be read in one sitting but will keep you coming back to help regain your bearings. Masha Gessen, author of The Future Is History As Timothy Snyder explains in his fine and frightening On Tyranny, a minority party now has near-total power and is therefore understandably frightened of awakening the actual will of the people. Adam Gopnik, The New Yorker Snyder knows this subject cold. . . . It is impossible to read aphorisms like post-truth is pre-fascism and not feel a small chill about the current state of the Republic.

The Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America (Hardback) (2018)
~EN HC NWISBN: 9780525574460 bzw. 0525574468, vermutlich in Englisch, Tim Duggan Books, United States, gebundenes Buch, neu.
Von Händler/Antiquariat, The Book Depository [54837791], London, United Kingdom.
Language: English. Brand new Book. From the author of On Tyranny comes a stunning new chronicle of the rise of authoritarianism from Russia to Europe and America. With the end of the Cold War, the victory of liberal democracy seemed final. Observers declared the end of history, confident in a peaceful, globalized future. This faith was misplaced. Authoritarianism returned to Russia, as Putin found fascist ideas that could be used to justify rule by the wealthy. In the 2010s, it has spread from east to west, aided by Russian warfare in Ukraine and cyberwar in Europe and the United States. Russia found allies among nationalists, oligarchs, and radicals everywhere, and its drive to dissolve Western institutions, states, and values found resonance within the West itself. The rise of populism, the British vote against the EU, and the election of Donald Trump were all Russian goals, but their achievement reveals the vulnerability of Western societies. In this forceful and unsparing work of contemporary history, based on vast research as well as personal reporting, Snyder goes beyond the headlines to expose the true nature of the threat to democracy and law. To understand the challenge is to see, and perhaps renew, the fundamental political virtues offered by tradition and demanded by the future. By revealing the stark choices before us--between equality or oligarchy, individuality or totality, truth and falsehood--Snyder restores our understanding of the basis of our way of life, offering a way forward in a time of terrible uncertainty.

With the end of the Cold War, the victory of liberal democracy was thought to be absolute. Observers declared the end of history, confident in a peaceful, globalized future.... With the end of the Cold War, the victory of liberal democracy was thought to be absolute. Observers declared the end of history, confident in a peaceful, globalized future. But we now know this to be premature. Authoritarianism first returned in Russia, as Putin developed a political system dedicated solely to the consolidation and exercise of power. In the last six years, it has creeped from east to west as nationalism inflames Europe, abetted by Russian propaganda and cyberwarfare. While countries like Poland and Hungary have made hard turns toward authoritarianism, the electoral upsets of 2016 revealed the citizens of the US and UK in revolt against their countries´ longstanding policies and values. But this threat to the West also presents the opportunity to better understand the pillars of our own political order. In this forceful and unsparing work of contemporary history, Snyder goes beyond the headlines to expose the true nature of the threat to democracy. By showcasing the stark choices before us - between equality or oligarchy, individuality or totality, truth and falsehood - Snyder restores our understanding of the basis of our way of life, offering a way forward in a time of terrible uncertainty. 1.
