Collecting the words of democracy like butterflies is a worthwhile endeavour. But it doesn't work without normative valuation and a democratic context. The butterflies are not only around us, but in us! And they need an intact environment to survive, writes Markus Pausch
Professor (Social Innovation), University of Salzburg
Markus leads projects on various issues of democracy, currently including Resilience Through Education for Democratic Citizenship, funded by the Council of Europe and the EU Commission.
He works on the political theory of the French philosopher Albert Camus, the practical relevance of theories of democracy and is currently researching the topic of polarisation and democratic innovations.
