Anti-Establishment Round Up (w/ ThreeSixOne and Peter Beckett)

Our co-hosts Gabriel Hedengren (@ghedengren) and Javid Ibad discuss the current electoral year. More than 30 countries in Europe had elections this year, as well as the EU parliament elections. We’ve picked out 6 key elections from the past year that will definitely continue to have repercussions into 2025 and beyond. We also interviewed Tom Theuns, a Senior Assistant Professor of Political Theory and European Politics at Leiden University, who has written an academic book called “Protecting Democracy in Europe” about how the European Union is and isn’t handling democratic backsliding amongst its member states. The book was published in November 2024 and is available online through its published hurstpublishers.com and across the usual resellers.  Produced by Europe Elects.
