How Populists Challenge Liberalism in Central Europe, with Keith Prushankin
I have recently had the exceptional Keith Prushankin on my podcast, “Loosely Eastern Europe” to talk about some of his dissertation research at Free University Berlin, where he is now in the final stage of completing his Ph.D.
In particular, we talk about Keith’s paper and presentation recently given on “How To Break A State: How Populists Challenge Liberalism In Post-Communist Central Europe.” This is largely based on his dissertation thesis.
This is the second time Keith has been on the podcast, always a thrill to talk.
We talked about all things related to populism in the Visegrad Group — also known as the V4 (that is, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary).
So, I thought I’d highlight some of the questions on my blog in case my readers were interested. Keith truly is an expert on post-communist countries with wide expertise in the regions in question. I couldn’t recommend this interview (despite the fact that I am obviously biased) more.

Now on to some of the questions I asked Keith.
