Why should we pay attention to Václav Havel? || Interview with Professor Timothy Snyder
It was a great pleasure for Milan Babík to engage in conversation with Timothy Snyder. This time they focused not on Ukraine, but on Václav Havel. When did Timothy Snyder first come across Havel's ideas? What was his initial reaction to them, and how have they shaped his intellectual development? What does he find so valuable about them, where do they figure in his current work, and why should we continue to pay attention to them? In this interview, you will find answers to these and other questions.
