The Weakening Of America's Democracy
Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:28:39

Description: Only on the "CBS This Morning" podcast, Harvard University government professors Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt say our democracy is in trouble. During the 2016 election, they were struck by what they describe as language and behavior never before seen in American politics, and were reminded of trends seen in failed democracies around the world. Their research primarily focuses on the governments of Latin America and the developing world as well as European systems of governing. And in their book "How Democracies Die," they say the symptoms of a weakening American democracy can be traced back decades before the most recent election cycle. They discuss the unprecedented level of polarization in American politics as people of opposing parties have grown to fear and loathe one another, along with other troubling trends with "CBS This Morning" podcast producer Anthony Martinez.
