Excerpt from The Rambler, Vol. 12: A Catholic Journal and Review of Home and Foreign Literature, Politics, Science, Music, and the Fine Arts Among the crimes against liberty committed in the name of liberty, the present has some distinguishing features. The brave and manly spirit Of the English Protestant revenges it self for a defeat sustained from men by an outrage upon women. The English Protestant is forced to submit to the hierarchy; he rejoices to think that he may at least annoy the nuns. But even this noble aim he dares not to avow. It is in the name of liberty that he violates the first principles of freedom. It is\to.carry out the babeas corpus that he puts the crowbar into the hand of the official burglar, and bids him break into the houses Of the Queen's subjects. And so consistent is Protestant hypocrisy, that the operation of this bill is un restricted, and that in a law passed with reference to one par ticular class of the community, there is not so much as a hint of-its existence. The persecution of, a few ladies who have devoted their lives to works of piety and charity is compassed by an enactment which puts at the mercy of a paid corn missioner and any country justice the domestic privacy and household security of every family in the kingdom.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of On Tyranny comes a stunning new chronicle of the rise of authoritarianism from Russia to Europe and America. “A brilliant analysis of our time.”—Karl Ove Knausgaard, The New Yorker With the end of the Cold War, the victory of liberal democracy seemed final. Observers declared the end of history, confident in a peaceful, globalized future. This faith was misplaced. Authoritarianism returned to Russia, as Vladimir Putin found fascist ideas that could be used to justify rule by the wealthy. In the 2010s, it has spread from east to west, aided by Russian warfare in Ukraine and cyberwar in Europe and the United States. Russia found allies among nationalists, oligarchs, and radicals everywhere, and its drive to dissolve Western institutions, states, and values found resonance within the West itself. The rise of populism, the British vote against the EU, and the election of Donald Trump were all Russian goals, but their achievement reveals the vulnerability of Western societies. In this forceful and unsparing work of contemporary history, based on vast research as well as personal reporting, Snyder goes beyond the headlines to expose the true nature of the threat to democracy and law. To understand the challenge is to see, and perhaps renew, the fundamental political virtues offered by tradition and demanded by the future. By revealing the stark choices before us--between equality or oligarchy, individuality or totality, truth and falsehood--Snyder restores our understanding of the basis of our way of life, offering a way forward in a time of terrible uncertainty.
