Globalization: a threat to democracy?

Is globalization a threat to democracy? In this podcast interview, PR Officer Kim König is joined by Julia Angster, professor of modern history at the University of Mannheim, to discuss the research behind her GHIL Lecture on globalization, democracy and the nation state in Germany after 1990. They explore the impact of globalization and neoliberalism on the nation state and national identity, the current state of liberal democracy and future directions for historiography beyond the national frame.

Don’t miss Julia Angster's accompanying GHIL Lecture “‘Post-Democracy’? Globalization, Democracy, and the Nation State in Germany after 1990”.
