How do leading scholars reflect on contemporary democracies and the prospects of a more democratic future? This volume offers a selection of conversations that were held at the Review of Democracy – the online journal of the CEU Democracy Institute – during the first half of the 2020s and probe that overarching question through key facets.Reviewing Contemporary Democracy explores six such facets: the relationship between democracy and equality; the historical, legal, and political dimensions of European integration; the globality of democratic thought and democratization; the inclusivity of contemporary memory regimes; the origins and discontents of our political economies; and the contestations of the rule of law.This exciting collection offers a multi- and interdisciplinary exploration of these issues while presenting cutting-edge scholarship in an accessible format. With Judith Butler, Francis Fukuyama, Clara E. Mattei, Darrin M. McMahon, Viet Thanh Nguyen, Kiran Klaus Patel, Kenneth Roth, Joseph Stiglitz, Helen Thompson, and Nathalie Tocci, among many others.
