Helene Landemore, Assistant Professor of Political Science, talks about re-thinking democracy in the 21st Century.
Professor Landemore’s research interests include democratic theory, theories of justice, the philosophy of social sciences, and the history of thought. Professor Landemore is currently working on a new project on democratic innovations in post-representative democracy. She has just published an article on the inclusive and partly crowdsourced constitution-making process in Iceland and she is involved in the design and study of a crowdsourced legislative process in Finland. She also is researching the question of democracy in the workplace.
