Better still, it runs the gamut of the many different and distinct ‘critiques’ that are nevertheless connected through complex, often non-linear and subterranean threads of family resemblances. The seventeen chapters of the Handbook constitute a work…

„Participatory Democratic Innovations in Southeast Europe” explores deliberative and participatory democratic innovations, focusing on Southeast Europe. It highlights the insufficiency of traditional participation methods in complex democratic processes, particularly in autocratizing societies. By examining democratic innovations through civil society and social movements, the book offers valuable insights for scholars and students of Southeast Europe, social movements, and democracy.
PROJECTS
The project aims to explore the thesis regarding the existence of two competing approaches to the Serbian national identity during the Yugoslav period, in which the new socialist state attempted to oppose the traditional, ethno-religious concept of the Serbian nation with a different understanding of national identity that would fit into a broader, pluralistic concept of the new society and complex state.
Building on the scholarship programs of IFDT and CAS, the project expands the program to the Western Balkans and establishes a regional program for researchers. The aim is to connect academics with public policy actors and civil society, supported by the universities in Rijeka and Belgrade, with opportunities for visits to universities in Skopje, Sarajevo, Pristina, Tirana, and Podgorica. The focus is on European integration, social and economic justice, digital transformation, and managing consequences.
Nets4Dem connects European experts in democracy, strengthening ties among existing actors for more effective collaboration. With a focus on networking in the democratic field, the project aims to link knowledge in democracy and governance, making it more accessible to policymakers. The goal is to support addressing complex challenges in developing a more inclusive society and resilient democracy.
