Call for Applications: PhD positions on democratic resilience at Leuphana University, Apply Now

In the face of multiple crises (pandemic, mass migration, climate change, terrorism and war), attacks from outside and challenges from within, democracies must prove to be robust and capable of performing and developing. Leuphana researchers investigate the question of whether democracies are inherently more resilient than alternative, autocratic counter-concepts. Through analyses on an individual, social, systemic and international level, they examine the resilience conditions of social models of order and develop transformation knowledge about how western liberal democracies can continue to generate legitimacy and support their resilience.
