How democratic can environmental protection be? How climate-friendly is democracy?

On Thursday, June 27, ZIN junior scholars Carolin Bohn and Tobias Gumbert will take part in a panel discussion on “Klimaschutz und Demokratie” (engl.:"Climate Protection and Democracy") organized by the KSHG Muenster. Together with Prof. Dr. Otto Klemm, Professor of Climatology, and Steffen Lambrecht of “Fridays for Future”, they will discuss the compatibility of democracy and environmental protection: How can a climate-friendly policy be implemented democratically? How much coercion is compatible with a liberal understanding of democracy?
The event starts at 8 p.m. and will take place in the “Aula” (Frauenstr. 3-6, 48143 Muenster). Admission is free.
Further information on the event can be found here.
