Can Responsible Debate Renew Democracy?

|

Workshop

What principles do you think should govern political debate?

Democracies pride themselves on allowing space for free political discussion as a way of reaching a compromise.

But political conversation in parliaments, on TV and on social media seems to be increasingly polarised.

Join us for a lively discussion of better and worse ways to disagree with one another. The outcomes of this discussion will inform our project to create a Scottish Charter for Responsible Public Debate.

 

This event is being delivered as part of the Festival of Politics at the Scottish Parliament.

Tickets £6 / £4 concession
