The Democracy Institute: Reflections on the U.S. 2020 Elections

On the heels of the American election, the recently established Democracy Institute at Central European University hosted its first event to discuss the broader implications of the election and how the outcome impacts democracy in the U.S. and worldwide. The online event, organized by CEU Professor and Co-Director of the Democracy Institute, Laszlo Bruszt, brought together CEU Rector and President, Michael Ignatieff, in conversation with speakers, Stephen Holmes (New York University), David Runciman (Cambridge University) and Nadia Urbinati (Columbia University), who discussed aspects of the election including the mutual incomprehension across party lines, the role of loser’s consent in Trump’s defeat, the historical significance of a single-term presidency as well as facets of institutional reform.
