PhiloMadrid on Skype 6:30pm Sunday 4th July: 20th and 21st Century democracy

Dear friends,

This Sunday we are discussing, 20th and 21st Century democracy.

The topic was proposed by Clara and is a follow up from the meeting on:

How much is too much democracy?

Alberto kindly prepared an essay for us on his Blog:

Sara has sent us a link to a documentary on Swiss democracy:
Fragmento del episodio de Salvados, "Ciudadano Klínex". (in Spanish)

In my essay I take the view that very little has changed between the
20th century and the first quarter of the 21st century:
