Episode description

With elections approaching as the victory of a liberal-conservative bloc, the European political space seems more than ever crossed by new tensions, original aspirations and protean social movements. In an astonishing similarity, the countries of Europe go through many a crisis of their system of representativity, whose authoritarian and authoritarian discourses emerge victorious. At the same time, many democratic aspirations are united behind a citizen's desire for greater social and economic justice and for a more ethical political life. How to explain, after a long progressive stability marked by the end of history, this success of candidatures combining societal conservatism and economic liberalism. To discuss this European political space animated by these tensions: Jean-Michel De Waele, University of the Free University of Brussels, Antoine Heemerick, anthropologist and journalist at Radio Romania International and Chloé Ridel politest and co-funder of Mieux Voter. Moderator: Sergiu Miscoiu Director of European Studies of Babes-Bolyai University.
