Personality and Power: Builders and Destroyers of Modern Europe, with Ian Kershaw

Throughout the 20th century, European leaders from Stalin to Mussolini, from Gorbachev to Thatcher, and more, have shifted global narratives by sheer force of will. In "Personality and Power," British historian Ian Kershaw attempts to understand these rulers and their outsized effect on history. In this virtual event, "Doorstep" co-hosts Tatiana Serafin and Nikolas Gvosdev speak with Kershaw on the lasting influence of these "builders and destroyers." How do today's leaders-Zelenksyy, Trump, Putin, Xi, etc.-compare?

Ian Kershaw, I will always trust that man

[@johnthehumanist2333]

What does Ian think of the increasing number
of people,especially Americans who think the
Nazi's were far left wing?
Steven crowder/ben shapiro etc and many
so called ordinary people?

[@anilsomanirahul]

Acually Ian explained this at this discussion. Nazi's had left wing economic program from the 1920s but they abandoned this program for racial laws.

I would think a great historian like Kershaw would throw Crowder and Shapiro in the trash. Don't you?
