“Most importantly, he has a new book out, What Happened to Liberal Democracy? This is a major work. I think of it as an attempt to redefine and revitalize liberalism for our current times. Daron, welcome. DARON ACEMOGLU: Thank you, Tyler. It’s my pleasure, and thanks for that wonderful introduction, which gets to the heart of the matter. That’s exactly”

“I try to convey this in the book, but perhaps not clearly enough—but what I think brought liberalism’s crisis. In two words, liberalism crisis is related to the rise of a post-industrial economy in which what you just called the educated elite has become both much more powerful and more numerous”
Own book
“If I take a step back, and this relates to both Hayek and to some of the themes that I try to develop in What Happened to Liberal Democracy?, I believe that liberalism and the kinds of society that we want to build that supports freedom does need decentralization.”

“Final question—but before, just your book again, What Happened to Liberal Democracy? by Daron Acemoglu, new out this year—what is it you want to learn about next?”
