A CONVERSATION WITH JAN-WERNER MUELLER on Sep 21, 2020

MUNICH DIALOGUES ON DEMOCRACY PRESENTS:

A CONVERSATION WITH JAN-WERNER MUELLER

Roger Williams Straus Professor of Social Sciences, Professor of Politics, Princeton University

Trump is a symptom, not the cause of the trouble experienced by the US. The talk takes us back to basic democratic principles and argues that we need to understand what has gone wrong with the two institutions which, ever since the nineteenth century, have been considered crucial for making representative democracy work: political parties and free media. A number of concrete ways to rethink and re-design these institutions are offered.

The Ivy Circle Munich “Stammtisch”, also there are more special events to come! -> Stay tuned!

The Ivy Circle Munich “Stammtisch” meets once a quarter and gives all participants the opportunity to deepen existing contacts and get to know new people with similar background. Over a beer or a good glass of wine alumni from different schools not just get new insights in business but also have the opportunity to gain new friends.

Additional community events over and above the “Stammtisch” (e.g. visits of cultural events, project presentations, leisure time activities, speaker events) take place on a case by case basis. All participating universities/schools are very welcome to initiate and/or support such additional community events.

All events are being announced by email via the participating universities/schools and also on this web-site.

Our last meeting / “Stammtisch” took place in June, 2025. The next “Stammtisch” will take place in Dec 2025.

More in person events are to come in 2025!

STAY TUNED!
