Diminished Democracy: featuring David Moscrop
Manage episode 346076659 series 3355462
What exactly is the impact of low voter turnout? What is behind people's exit from electoral politics in Canada? Political columnist, author and podcaster David Moscrop sits down with host Jessa McLean to look at the root causes of low voter turnout - and what that means for a representative democracy. They look at why democracy shifted away from more direct participation to what we see today - alienated voters and bad representation. Solutions are explored, as well as alternatives. They also ask the question: If voter turnout continues to decline - at what point does a liberal democracy become illegitimate?
