How to Fix Democracy with Adrian Wooldridge

Since its origins, democracy has been a work in progress. Today, many question its resilience. The Bertelsmann Foundation and Humanity in Action have teamed up with Andrew Keen, author of How to Fix the Future, to launch How to Fix Democracy: a video and podcast series exploring practical responses to the threats facing democracies around the world. Host Andrew Keen interviews prominent thinkers, writers, politicians, technologists, and business leaders who enlighten and challenge us as we seek the answers to How to Fix Democracy.

Eurosceptic and anti-Brexiter, Adrian Wooldridge argues that democracy must find a middle ground between the elites and the populists. Wooldridge, political editor for The Economist, and Andrew Keen debate whether a politics of identity is undermining or invigorating democracy, whether capitalism and democracy are on divergent paths, and how to detach the “liberal” from the “liberal elite.”
