The 4th edition of this Forum focuses on the meaning and future of democracy in Europe. Since the war in Ukraine, it has become more and more clear that democracy is no longer an abstract self-evidence, but a fragile construction under pressure.
How does Europe deal with technological developments, its history of colonialism, imperialism and autocratic influences? And if Europe wants to be a democracy, what actions are needed?
De Balie brings together artists, activists and intellectuals to explore democracy as a cultural rather than a political expression.
Deadline: 04 June 2023
