Ahead of Pat Kenny's move to weekends at the beginning of March, we've delved into the archives to bring you some of the best pieces from his dozen-and-a-half years of mornings on Newstalk.

Alexander Dukalskis from UCD looks at the rise of authoritarianism and how countries have put the internet and universities, things the west value as ways to spread democracy to use to enhance their regimes.

Join Pat every Saturday & Sunday morning from 10am, starting in March.
