Rozum proti populismu - Rozhovory Petra Fialy s přáteli o něm i o naší zemi – Fiala Petr (2021)

No matter what you think of Petr Fiala, it's hard to accuse him of being unreadable. On the contrary, he is one of the few politicians whose long-term beliefs, thought processes, and advocacy are clear. Petr Fiala is not a man of momentary moods and whims: his political vision and program are thoroughly thought out. This publication will allow readers to delve even deeper into his thinking and private life, further illustrating his personality. It includes a selection of the most interesting interviews conducted with him by long-time friends – discussing politics, society, and education, but also his youth during communism, the November revolution, and his academic career. Moreover, it will shed light on why, as the title suggests, it is important to wage a battle of reason against populism...
