Repercussions of the economic crisis and increasing tensions between Ukraine and Russia provide a fertile ground for extremism, populism, nationalism and undemocratic tendencies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-the-rise-of-illiberalism\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Ivan Krastev<\/a>&nbsp;argues in the Review that an alternative to liberal democracy has arisen in Europe.&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-putinism-orbanism-but-is-there-an-ism\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Jan-Werner Muller<\/a>&nbsp;further analyses the potential of Victor Orban&rsquo;s and Vladimir Putin&rsquo;s political leadership to turn into a political ideology. The issue also explores contradictions in the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-european-far-right-and-putin\/\" rel=\"noopener\">&nbsp;Russian influence on the European radical right political parties<\/a>, whereas&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-frost-in-central-europe\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Martin \u0160ime\u010dka<\/a>&#039;s article&nbsp;indicates&nbsp;that the real threat to liberal democracy in Europe comes from Central Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDespite a strong European focus, the issue offers insights into political dynamics in other parts of the world. For example, French analyst&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-what-does-china-want\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Francois Godement&nbsp;<\/a>explains how the political landscape in China changed under president Xi Jinping, and an Indian essayist&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aspeninstitute.cz\/en\/article\/3-2014-india-and-china-more-similar-than-you-might-think\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Pankaj Mishra<\/a>&nbsp;points out some unexpected similarities between China and India.
