S3E8 | Roslyn Fuller | That’s not democracy, this is democracy!
from Liberalism in Question | CIS · host Robert Forsyth | Centre for Independent Studies
On this episode Rob chats to author Roslyn Fuller. Liberals believe in the value of democracy, but Roslyn tells Rob there is truly little of it in the word today. This is because there is little direct power given to people in our system of government. Drawing on the example of ancient Athens, Roslyn outlines her preferred model of direct democracy. Her critique of the current representative democracy is that it is open to corruption and shewing of what the people actually want. Roslyn argues for a more direct engagement of people in decision making.
