Given the almost universal malaise of liberal democracies, it amazes me that people still think that the way out is institutional reform. Mainstream parties have failed in all systems and far-right parties have succeeded in all systems. More importantly, people are dissatisfied in all systems.

Según el más reciente estudio de Actualidades de la Universidad de Costa Rica (UCR), apenas cuatro de cada 100 costarricenses leen al menos un libro al año. Entre quienes se consideran lectores frecuentes, el promedio es de apenas cinco libros anuales.

The Portuguese far right party CH has been growing spectacularly, shattering views of the country as immune to this phenomenon.
This has prompted a discussion about where their votes come from.
Some thoughts on this, prompted by newly released survey data:
