Abstract

A growing branch of democratic theory and practice diagnoses that liberal democracy is in crisis. Nevertheless, academics are divided with regards to the roots of, and the potential cure for, this crisis: Should we do our best to ‘rescue’ liberal democracy and its underlying normative and organisational principles, or is it time to search for alternative ways of ‘doing democracy’?

Research Week 2021 is the fourth Annual event hosted by the University of Nairobi each year. The week features over ten different conferences covering a diverse range of academic disciplines, one of which is bound to meet your interest and area of expertise.
