How Illiberal Movements Coordinate Across Borders and What Liberals Can Learn
By
Steve Kennedy
The bagel they save for the regulars. Don't skim, savour.
Summary
The article examines how illiberal and authoritarian movements have successfully coordinated across international borders over the past twenty years, sharing ideas, personnel, and financial resources. It uses the example of former Polish President Andrzej Duda joining the Heritage Foundation as a visiting fellow focused on "democratic resilience" to illustrate this phenomenon. The piece argues that liberal and democratic forces can learn from the organizational and networking strategies employed by illiberal movements to better coordinate their own efforts in defending democratic institutions and values globally.
