Prospect Magazine  |  Oct 2020
in Prospect's October issue: Exactly twenty-five years on from the first issue of Prospect, the world is a very different place. In 1995, the spread of democracy seemed inevitable but now it is under threat on many fronts. In this issue, HOW DEMOCRACY DIES, Samira Shackle reports on Hungary's slide into autocracy under Victor Orbán. We also interview George Soros, who fears that the EU may be brought down by the Covid-19 crisis and political extremism. Meanwhile in the US, as Dahlia Lithwick reports, Donald Trump is doing everything in his power to twist the voting system to him own advantage. Back in the UK, David Allen Green, reviewing the new book by the Secret Barrister, argues that Boris Johnson has been disregarding legal norms. On the domestic front, Gaby Hinsliff talks to teachers about the increasingly popular ultra-strict disciplinary techniques that are helping students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Plus: Miranda France on the struggles of Martin Amis and Robert Douglas-Fairhurst on the excessive life of Lucian Freud.
