Institution for Social and Policy Studies Conference: “America’s Contested Democratic Creed”

The Institution for Social and Policy Studies presents a two day conference: 

“America’s Contested Democratic Creed.” 

A conference organized by Milan Svolik, the Elizabeth S. & A. Varick Stout Professor of Political Science. 

Understanding the nature, causes, and consequences of challenges to democracy in the United States is one of the most important tasks facing political science today. Over the past decade, more questions have been raised about the stability of our institutions and the robustness of Americans’ commitment to democratic norms than in any time in recent memory. A guiding theme of this conference is a conversation between Americanists and comparativists who work on democratic erosion.
