Democracy and science

Free science needs a free society. But how can we safeguard our democracy? How can science provide timely policy recommendations on pressing socio-political issues? How can  public awareness of anti-democratic tendencies be further increased? We support a wide range of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research projects that address these and other highly topical issues in democracy research - and present them to you in this thematic focus.
