Democracy in Today's Lonely Century
i think democracy is effected on a number of fronts by the growing loneliness crisis. These micro exchanges, these interactions we have with people whoare different to us are important for inclusive democracy. i argue that there 're also ways that we practise democracy. Even if you're in the supermarket wheeling your trolley rather than ordering your foed on line. The other reason why loneliness is threatening democracy is because of the link between loneliness and popularism.
