Liberalism Around the World: Liberalism in Estonia ft. Tarmo Jüristo
Listen now
Description
In 2023, Estonia's liberal parties had a tremendously successful election - winning power and decisively defeating their far right. But how does Estonian politics work, and what does liberalism mean in Estonia? This week's episode is another episode in our Liberalism Around The World series, and we're focusing on liberalism in Estonia. We're joined by Tarmo Juristo, the founder of SALK, one of Estonia's most important liberal political organizations. Tarmo and I talk about how Estonian political parties are organized, why liberals have been so successful in Estonia, the most important issues for Estonian liberals today, and how the spectre of Russia influences Estonia's politics.
