I have read two of Daron Acemoglu’s books, Why Nation’s Fail and The Narrow Corridor. Both books were co-authored and hard books to read because the arguments were a mix of history, economics, and politics. Challening but fun reads. Acemoglu has a new book out called What Happened to Liberal Democracy? that I definitely want to add to my TBR pile. He’s also a Nobel Laureate in Economics.

He is making the rounds to promote his new book. Below are two interviews worth listening to, especially if you aren’t planning on reading the book.
