For this last Fall semester Conversations on Europe, join our experts for an interactive virtual roundtable discussion on the “State of Democracy in Europe.”

This panel considers several aspects of the current state of democracy in Europe, with special attention to the rise of right-wing populism, illiberal forms of democracy, declining party loyalty, and evidence of increasing disenchantment with the current state of democracy in Europe. The panel will seek to discuss these issues with the help of a broad comparative and historical perspective.
