The Brussels Democracy Dialogue 2024 addressed the important question "How to Transition Sustainable Democracies?" Based on the discussion outcomes, a series of new papers aim to provide answers.
In response to the rise of leaders with autocratic tendencies in advanced democracies, creeping autocratisation in many democracies previously considered consolidated, and faltering democratisation processes in Southeastern and Eastern Europe, the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung EU Office Brussels and FES Democracy of the Future Office Vienna organised the first Brussels Democracy Dialogue on 20 November 2024.
Just like the previous Hambach Democracy Dialogue (HDD), this expert conference serves as a platform to exchange progressive ideas and proposals for further developing European democracies. The discussions have inspired a new series of articles: The Brussels Democracy Papers. You can already access the first by Dan Sobovitz and Omri Preiss below. Stay tuned for a second article being published in the near future!
Democracy is under increasing threat - in Europe and worldwide. Independent institutions erode, the information space suffers from manipulation and electoral processes face sustained attacks. In response, transnational cooperation has become even more critical. In their Brussels Democracy Paper, Dan Sobovitz and Omri Preiss therefore examine the need for a unified defense against authoritarian forces, highlighting how movements like DemoCrisis are leading efforts to bring together pro-democracy actors across Europe and its neighbourhood.
