Elements of Democratic Fascism

Literary sociologist Carolin Amlinger and sociologist Oliver Nachtwey examine new authoritarian movements of our time through numerous interviews - from the AfD and Trump to libertarian currents. How do disappointment, status anxiety, and broken promises of freedom unleash anti-democratic energy? Their book Zerstörungslust (Suhrkamp 2025) explores this question.

The discussion is moderated by Steffen Mau (MPI for Politics and Social Sciences).
