In 2018 Ziblatt published How Democracies Die with fellow Harvard scholar Steven Levitsky. The book examines the conditions that can lead democracies to break down from within, rather than due to external events such as military coups or foreign invasions. How Democracies Die received widespread praise. It spent a number of weeks on The New York Times Best Seller list and six weeks on the non-fiction bestseller list of the German weekly Der Spiegel.[2]
The book was recognized as one of the best nonfiction books of 2018 by The Washington Post, Time, and Foreign Affairs.[3]
