SUMMARY:Elections vs. Sortition - Is random selection the better choice?
DESCRIPTION:How can a democracy work efficiently at all and make sustainable decisions in the long term if politicians have to orient their actions to one thing above all else: They want to be re-elected at the next election. In his book "Against Elections", Van Reybrouck describes this mechanism as "democratic fatigue syndrome". How do we get away from it? Perhaps completely new ways are needed, even if they seem quite unworldly at first glance? Van Reybrouck's proposals take up a very old democratic principle that was already practised in ancient Athens: Sortition. In this event, David Van Reybrouck explains how this can practically make our democracy, which has become powerless, more lively today. An event in the series "More Democracy in Conversation".
