FT Weekend Debate

Can democracy survive 2024? asked the Financial Times at the beginning of this year in one of its big reads. The numerous elections all around the world, the effect of climate change and technological advancements on the loss of trust in our politicians to face the future, the raise of extremism and populism and the fragility of principal institutions have narrowed a reflecting momentum on the future of our political systems. Is better education, fake news dismantlement mechanisms, more opened and representative pollical models, the solution? Reflecting on this are Frederick Studemann, literary editor of FT, and Dr. Ilke Toygür, director of the Center for Global Politics and professor of European Geopolitics at the IE School of Politics, Economics and Global Affairs and
Erica Benner, political Philosopher.
