Brought with the support of IRGAC, this Authoritarian Life is a podcast that explores everyday human stories to make sense of authoritarian politics. Once a month, hosts Kristóf Szombati and Erdem Evren, relying on their own experience from Hungary and Turkey, invite guests from all over the world to shine light on the following questions:
What are the roots of authoritarianism? What does the rise of authoritarianism look like up close? How can everyday people navigate authoritarian spaces? And how can authoritarianism be confronted?
It’s about understanding: giving you a better grasp of the deeper causes driving authoritarianism. It’s about insight: offering a glimpse into the difficulties of navigating authoritarian lifeworlds. It’s about hope: examples of people who work toward a more humane world.
