Democracy in Times of Crisis
Seminar
Is democracy (still) resilient today? Democracy is increasingly coming under pressure. Driven by war, the pandemic, the climate crisis, the consequences of digitalisation and growing gaps between rich and poor, social divisions and polarisation are becoming an ever greater challenge to democracy. This seminar looks at new forms of democratic action, examines new concepts of citizenship and the role and participation of civil society and their potential for building resilience in times of crisis.
