Who is the author of the book ‘The Future of Freedom’?

Richard Wolfee
Peter Hudson
Tamara Lipper
Fareed Zakaria

The correct answer is D. Fareed Zakaria.

Fareed Zakaria is an Indian-American author, political commentator, and editor-at-large of The Washington Post. He is also the host of Fareed Zakaria GPS, a weekly international affairs television show on CNN.

Zakaria’s book, The Future of Freedom: Illiberal Democracy at Home and Abroad, was published in 2003. In the book, Zakaria argues that democracy is in crisis, and that illiberal democracies are becoming more common. He defines illiberal democracy as a form of government in which elections are held but basic freedoms are restricted.

Zakaria argues that illiberal democracies are dangerous because they can lead to authoritarianism. He also argues that illiberal democracies are not as successful as liberal democracies in promoting economic growth and development.

Zakaria’s book has been praised by some and criticized by others. Critics have argued that Zakaria is too optimistic about the prospects for democracy, and that he underestimates the dangers of illiberal democracy. However, Zakaria’s book has been influential, and it has helped to shape the debate about the future of democracy.
