Join us on Friday, April 4th for a discussion on Democracy vs. Authoritarianism. Global politics is increasingly depicted as a struggle between democracy and authoritarianism. Meanwhile, in America, democracy is being dragged into destructive partisan political battles. Professor Thomson from Arizona State University will discuss what is at stake when we discuss democracy and authoritarianism today, and what we as citizens can expect from American democracy.
