Teoretiker Ivan Krastev argumenterer for, at fem store revolutioner har formet den politiske kultur over de seneste 50 år. Han viser hvorledes hvert skridt fremad, fra kulturevolutionen i 60'erne til fremskridt indenfor hjerneforskning, har medvirket til samtidig at fjerne tillid som et værktøj i demokratiet. Som han siger: "Hvad der gik godt var også hvad der gik galt." Kan demokratiet overleve?

Ivan Krastev: Kan demokrati eksistere uden tillid?

Trust in democratic institutions is collapsing, even as societies grow more open and informed. In some countries, more than 80 percent of voters have cast blank ballots, signaling deep disillusionment. Major cultural, economic, and technological revolutions have brought greater freedom and choice, but also rising inequality and polarization. The very forces that expanded democracy are now eroding its foundations, challenging the idea that more openness leads to greater legitimacy.
