Today we had a joint meeting with our group and @demolabs.bsky.social to talk about current projects! We never thought about democracy on Mars - Thanks for the visit!

Yesterday, the wonderful Lea Kaftan @dielea.bsky.social shared her valuable insights on how authoritarianism and populism shape citizens' support for democracy and are linked to vote choice 🗳️🔍

👋 Hi, we have just migrated here from you know where.

Give us a follow for news and events about democratic innovations.

We are currently putting together our newsletter, so if you have publications or events you want us to share, put them in the replies.

In 2024, we connected with decision-makers: André Bächtiger and @seraphinearnold.bsky.social spoke to the EU Committee of the Regions in Brussels, we participated in the Deutschlandmonitor event on social cohesion at the Federal Chancellery, and visited the Federal Parliament of Baden-Württemberg.

Look back at 2024 with us💁: Our team travelled to several conferences (like the Deliberative Democracy Summer School in Canberra, ECPR Joint Sessions, EPSA), and workshops (on methods, and democratic preferences).

Polish elections are big for the EU – but what do 👉Polish citizens👈 think about EU integration after an era of Eurosceptic government?

We ran a survey just before the election. Indeed, most Poles prefer intergovernmental solutions though there is also support for federal ones.

Who should be entitled to political rights? Our research on deliberating on the boundaries of the demos is out with EJPR as OpenAccess Polisky
