The person being interviewed makes an interesting point that I though should be pursued further by people to see if the evidence holds: The center right really determines the stability of a democracy. If they are strong enough to be self contained, then things are stable; if they have to rely on the far right to maintain power, then things will fall apart quickly.

I suspect you need both the center left and center right to be stable in order for democracy to work. Right now, center right conservatives are weak.

The center left across much of the democratic world is weak as well.
