Episode Synopsis
How would governance work on Mars? And what can we learn about democratic preferences on Earth? In this episode, Professor André Bächtiger, a political scientist at the University of Stuttgart, discusses his ERC-funded research into the design of governance systems for the Red Planet and compares democratic models in the US, Germany and the Global South. He examines how dominant discourses shape democracy, the role of deliberation in education and the potential of AI in university discussions. Look forward to a stimulating conversation about the future of democracy - on Earth and beyond!
