Today, at around 8, my friend and colleague Matthias and I are welcoming our students to our class in “E-Democracy – Opportunities for Participatory Democracy?“.
We look forward to learning (and so much more …) with them for the next two and a half months, here at Deutsche SchülerAkademie in Brunswick. For me, it’s the mother of all summer schools.
Here’s the teaser with which we’re beginning our teaching tonight.

This summer, I look forward to going back to Deutschen SchülerAkademie, for me, the mother of all summer schools.

My friend and colleague Matthias Bröcheler and I are offering a course on “E-Democracy – An Opportunity for Participatory Democracy?”. Together with 16 students, we will look into computer science, sociological, mathematical, political science and statistical perspectives on the essential question of how to organize postindustrial, liberal democracy , “unity in diversity”. At the intersection of our interests and academic disciplines, politics and IT, social and computer science, we look forward to taking our students on a transcdisciplinary adventure.
