The Civic Forum is a weekly webinar featuring short lectures and discussions of democracy, authoritarianism and activism from leading scholars and practitioners. It is hosted by Rory Truex, Associate Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University. 

This week we will hear from Kim Lane Scheppele, a professor in the School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. Kim is an expert on constitutional law and will put the American experience in comparative perspective, focusing her discussion on the erosion of democracy in Hungary under Viktor Orban. She will draw on insights from her new book, Destroying Democracy by Law.
