The Future of Freedom by Fareed Zakaria is a compelling exploration of the tension between democracy and civil liberties. Zakaria argues that while democracy is a valuable system of governance, it does not automatically guarantee the protection of individual rights. He examines case studies from around the world to illustrate how democratic governments can erode civil liberties in the name of security or majority rule. The Future of Freedom raises important ethical questions about the balance between democracy and individual rights, making it a must-read for those interested in civil liberties and the ethical challenges they present.
