Description

Cognitive Republic a book-length project written online, in public - a new and scary experience for me, and I hope an exhilarating experience for you. This will be the podcast version. I begins with a blunt claim: unless liberal democracies reinvent themselves, they will be out-competed by populist authoritarian alternatives.

Not everywhere; not all at once; but steadily, through institutional fatigue, informational disorder, and the seductive simplicity of strongman answers.

The central premise is equally blunt. Democracies that learn—truly learn—are the ones that will endure.
