From China and Kyiv, to Afghanistan and Israel, to elections in Iran and the debacle of Brexit, for over forty years New York Times Paris bureau chief Roger Cohen has journeyed to all corners of the world to cover everything from truth and dissent, to dictatorship, revolution, and displacement.

Now, in An Affirming Flame: Meditations on Life and Politics, Cohen’s finest columns, dispatched from Tehran, China, Cairo, Libya, Vietnam, Gaza, Ukraine, Munich, Hungary, and Poland, and more, have been compiled together for the first time, accompanied by a never-before-seen essay on the state of the world. In these writings, offering an assessment of politics and journalism in the twenty-first century, Cohen traces out a path for the future of democracy. He will appear in conversation with European history expert Jacques Rupnik.
