Can transnational citizens' assemblies connect with other publics? How exactly? @AndreaFelicetti and yours truly gave it a good thinking. We haven't found the answer, but came up with a lot of other questions instead. 🙂 👇 https://t.co/nOOCvRb5h7

Resist divisive discourses. Combat spin. Embrace the crazy idea at the core of democracy: radical equality. Over the past weekend, 200 Europeans got together in Athens to figure out the ways out of crises. Thanks @Dem_Odyssey for opening up such a generative space.

Ending conference season with a splash! Just back from two great workshops: Varieties of Deliberative Practices in Lisbon and Far Right Extremism and Democracy in Athens. Always a pleasure to debate with old and new colleagues, followed by Negroni and a view. 💯
