Synopsis

In 2024, over 50 countries, including seven of the world's most populous nations, will hold crucial national elections, shaping the trajectory of global democracy. The podcast delves into the challenges democracy faces from both the radical right and left, questioning the persistence of "strong man" leaders and the threat of extreme partisanship. While not among the nations holding elections this year, Chile's recent experience with constitutional reform provides valuable insights into the struggles faced by democracies worldwide. Isabel Aninat, a Chilean jurist deeply involved in the quest for a new constitution, shares reflections on the implications of her country's journey towards a more perfect democracy in this concise exploration for New Thinking for a New World.
