Griffin argues that the two should not simply be treated as equivalent political forces, while Bonikowska pushes back with the historical experience of communism in Central and Eastern Europe. The discussion then turns to why voters are becoming frustrated with mainstream parties, the future of liberal democracy and the economic, ecological and demographic pressures shaping politics. Warsaw Debate: Supplement is a special follow-up segment to the main debate, giving the host and an expert guest more time to examine the ideas, arguments and political trends raised during the program. Hosted by Małgorzata Bonikowska, the supplement features an extended conversation with Professor Roger Griffin, Emeritus Professor of Modern History at Oxford Brookes University and a scholar of fascism and political extremism.
