U.S. midterms: how ‘the Big Lie,’ election misinformation puts democracy at stake
Description
November 6, 2022
In the last two decades, democracy has been on increasingly shaky ground in Russia, Turkey, Venezuela, India, Hungary, and Poland - leaders to varying degrees who have sought to subvert institutions and the rule of law, silence critics, and consolidate their own rule. Democracy is even under threat in the place where it was thought to be well established – in the United States. The promise of a golden future and the thought that one man – and it always seems to be a man – can deliver it is an appealing notion in a time when growing inequality has fueled uncertainty and anger with elected leaders largely failing to address it. Dawna Friesen has more.
