Far-right parties are gaining traction in Europe, Vladimir Putin tightens his grip on Russia and undermines democracy abroad, and America struggles with poisonous threats from the right and left. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But the defenders of democracy are strong too. Taking their cues from the 1788 Federalist Papers, the Renew Democracy Initiative is a collective of pro-democracy advocates from across the political spectrum, including Anne Applebaum, Garry Kasparov, Max Boot, Bret Stephens, Ted Koppel, and Natan Sharansky. This book is their foundational document, a collection of essays that analyze the multi-pronged threats to liberal democracy in the U.S. and abroad, and offer solutions based on fundamental democratic principles such as freedom of speech, a free press, and the rule of law. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eFight for Liberty \u003c\/i\u003eis a roadmap for the struggle against the rising tide of extremism and a \u003ci\u003ecri de coeur \u003c\/i\u003ein defense of the liberal world order, which sees itself threatened as never before today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Lasswell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 154172416X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781541724167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PublicAffairs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2018","brand":"Mark Lasswell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47965277716735,"sku":"9781541724167","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ae934671-bc84-412f-aad8-965eaea8ba3e.jpg?v=1767279455","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fight-for-liberty-mark-lasswell-9781541724167","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
