Is a turn toward autocracy threatening the United States? Jan-Werner Müller sheds light on the current political developments with analytical distance from daily agitation and explores how resilient the democratic institutions of the USA really are. It becomes clear how autocratization is concretely unfolding in the 21st century – and what lessons Europe can draw from it. A pointed evening about power, populism, and the future of democracy on this side and the other side of the Atlantic.

Jan-Werner Müller is a Professor of Political Theory at Princeton University and one of the most influential international voices in democratic research. His books and essays have shaped the debates on populism, constitutional fidelity, and the crises of liberal democracies for years.
