This programme was held in Dutch. Please visit the Dutch page for a complete recap.

Wednesday 15 April 2026| 20.00 - 21.30 hrs | Lecture Hall Complex, Radboud University

Democracy is under pressure. Values that once seemed self‑evident are disappearing. Europe is threatened not only by its enemies, but also by its most important ally. In his new book Absolute Democracy, Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer examines the mechanisms shaping our time. Where did things go wrong? And what might the path toward a better future look like?

Four students cast a critical eye on these questions and engage in conversation with Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer. Come listen and think along about the future of democracy.

The programme was Dutch spoken. Visit the Dutch page for a complete recap.
