GEZİ GOES GLOBAL

This panel takes a look at the future of democracy and authoritarianism in Turkey and the world. In the concluding event of the panel series, the participants will take a look at the future of democracy and authoritarianism from the perspective of Turkey's post-gezi era. They will adress, among others, questions like: What can right defenders and democratic activists from all around the world learn from Turkey's decade-long teetering between radical democratic and populist authoritarian paths? Can populist authoritarians ever be beaten through democratic means? If yes, how? If not, why not?

With Robin Çelikateş, Ayça Çubukçu, Nil Mutluer & Murat Özbank, Seda Yüksel
