How can liberal democracies deal with the threat of intolerant extremists? Elisabeth Braw, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, draws on the insights of philosopher Karl Popper, who witnessed the rise of Nazism in Europe. She discusses the case of Sweden, where Koran burnings have sparked violent reactions, and the dilemma of protecting free speech while preventing hate crimes. Listen to this episode of New Thinking for a New World to learn more about the risks and challenges of being too tolerant.
