Illiberalism has gradually become a staple in European political discourse. It shapes policy and debates on immigration, multiculturalism and human rights. These issues are now charged with controversy, which makes it difficult for the free press to navigate them.
This Friday, 16 June, Eurozine’s Polish partner New Eastern Europe and the Heinrich Böll Foundation host a hybrid discussion on the intricate interplay between illiberalism and the fate of democracy. Join us online or in-person and add your questions to the conversation about how the world of publishing operates when anti-democratic sentiments are approaching. The event will be live streamed here, at eurozine.com.
Adam Reichardt, editor and chief of New Eastern Europe and Agata Gontarczyk from the Heinrich Böll Foundation are hosting the evening.
The discussion will be moderated by Elodie Thevenin, political science researcher specialized in parliamentary debates on migration, based at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków.
