Tracing the rift running through liberal democracy
Populist movements occupy the rift running through liberal democracy, claiming that “true democracy” needs no liberal (“elite”) restraints. In return, critics of populism may overemphasize the liberal side of democracy or even toy with the idea of rolling back democratic participation, having lost faith in the reasonableness of the multitude. In an almost tragic dynamic, liberal democracy is in danger of being torn apart. It is therefore crucial to assess the potential for democratic innovation that lies precisely in the conflictual nature of liberal democracy and to build trust between citizens pulling on both sides of this unique experiment.
