I see two big brands of authoritarianism on the rise right now.
One is populist strongman rule, usually but not always of a right wing bent. We have this rising in the US.
The other is technocratic corporatism, the model of China and it seems a faction of the EU.
Both endlessly malign democracy and liberalism as decadent, chaotic, and responsible for an endless parade of bogie men they will protect you against.
