On February 24th, the Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy closed a two-day workshop on authoritarianism with a presentation by former AHCD Visiting Research Fellow Ricardo Regatieri on the topic.
The spectre of new authoritarianisms loomed large over the discussions on the 24th. Participants indeed kicked off the second day of discussion and workshops with the news of the invasion of Ukraine.
Following these conversations Ricardo Regatieri took the stage to present his own research on the global phenomenon of contemporary far-right wing and its Brazilian branch, aptly titled “The Politics of the Irrational”. The presentation had two major parts, starting with the age of the internet and its effects on the political arena. From conspiracy theories to pseudoscience and fake news, Prof. Regatieri—who spent the past six months researching the topic the Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy—covered the implication of these new phenomena for authoritarian regimes.
