Democracy and Counter-Extremism

This two-day course examines growing concerns with counter-extremism and democratic rule. Each facet explores different means by which counter-extremism measures reveal that conventional democratic models tend to undertheorize and/or overlook important values and justifications. Engaging at individual, state, supranational, and international levels, its multi-disciplinary program aims to stimulate discussion on a wide range of substantive and procedural questions.
