Question

What does zakaria mean by illiberal democracy? why does he think that the number of governments that can be characterized as illiberal democracies is increasing?

Answer 1

Zakaria would recommend that countries are looking to fundamentally change themselves into liberal majority rule governments in light of the fact that the idea is viewed as inherently great without addressing whether the conditions in a specific country will loan themselves to it. For Zakaria, when countries naturally embrace liberal vote based system without managing and building up the conditions that loan authenticity to it, they move toward becoming "illiberal."
