In this edition of the Democracy Lighthouse Digest, Ivan Krastev, a Bulgarian political scientist, asks us to fall in love with the future. Ria Shibata examines the role of youth in the recent Japanese election, and Jordan Ryan discusses the UN’s “moment of truth.” This issue also includes the latest book from Ciro Murayama “The Future is Nearly Gone: Neoliberalism and Populism in 21st Century Mexico,” and concludes by looking forward to Toda’s Middle East and North Africa series featured in next month’s digest.
