A analytically focused conversation track that stitches together cross-border comparisons of democracy risks, autocracy, populism, and media power. Across episodes, the analysis contrasts experiences in the United States and Turkey, exploring how conspiracy rhetoric, grand architectural symbolism, media capture, and nepotism shape political participation, public trust, and governance. Scholarly insights ground the discussions, offering historical context, contemporary case studies, and practical implications for safeguarding democratic norms.
