This online course examines instances in the past in which democratic states collapse into autocracy or dictatorship. We will take a pinch of political theory and mix it with a lot of traditional history in order to learn about the factors that weakened and then overwhelmed several democratic systems. We will discuss the collapse of the Roman Republic, France's First, Second and Third Republics, Germany's Weimar Republic, the Kingdom of Italy, the empire of Japan, and some countries that have become less democratic the past two decades, such as Russia, Turkey, Venezuela, El Salvador, and Hungary.
