Half the World Has Elections in 2024 & Democracy Is at Stake

As 2023 comes to a close, we look to a new year that is set to bring a world of challenges -- from turmoil in the Middle East and war in Ukraine to growing tensions over Taiwan, and more than half the global population heading to the polls. Deputy Editor of The Economist Tom Standage joins the show to discuss his article "The Ten Trends to Watch in 2024" and the "World Ahead 2024" series.
