Ein Potpourri zum Aktivismus in der Demokratie

 

The times are certainly changing, with democratic elections due here in Austria and over there in the States.
Welcome to this one-off programme entitled as a question: ‘Democracy through education?’ by Sandra and Andrew Milne-Skinner.

For FREIRAD, they run fortnightly, ‘Poetry Café’ and monthly, ‘Reading Circle’, both programmes in English.

For the International Day of Democracy, they deal with the following topics:

  • Education as an integral part of the democratic process
  • The danger of democracy declining
  • Direct democracy: a good thing?
  • Political education in schools
  • Example 1: the novel “Lord of the Flies” (W. Golding)
  • An island as an utopian metaphor
  • Example 2: the fable “Animal Farm” (G. Orwell)
