Episode 17: When politics turns nasty
Manage episode 441684960 series 3600370
Democracy can often be knocked off course by political violence, but in some places it’s become an ingrained part of how politics is done. This week Ben wants to find out why violence and democracy can be so hard to separate, and how to stop violence taking hold of our politics in the first place.
Guests:
- Arunima Kar, Freelance journalist based in Kolkata
- Amalendu Misra, Professor of International Politics at Lancaster University, and author of ‘Towards a Philosophy of Narco Violence in Mexico’
- Hannah Philips, policy researcher at the University of Oxford and Civility Commission Manager at the Jo Cox Foundation
