About The Session
Join Dr Martin Scott & Dr Ulrike Theuerkauf from the University of East Anglia for an interactive session discussing whether democracy is in crisis. You will specifically focus on the different types of democracy, signs of a global democratic recession since 2006, the rise of far-right populism, the role of media in safeguarding or weakening democracy, and why some social scientists are worried about the state of the democracy in the UK.
