Join us
Monday, Nov. 27, from 3:30-5 p.m. in Bemis Hall for a fascinating First Monday presentation from
Srdja Popovic, Distinguished Visiting Instructor in Political Science,
Defending Democracy Through Social Movements!
From brutal autocracies, like those in Iran and Burma, to “established” democracies, like Hungary or Poland, values and institutions of democracy are in peril all over the world. Historic cases and contemporary dynamics clearly point out that the most successful way to defend it is through mass social non-violent movements.
Stay after the presentation for a Q&A session. Light refreshments will be served.
