Event Description
<p>You’re invited to join Rory Truex, Associate Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University, for a Global Challenges to Democracy seminar.</p><p> </p><p>Contemporary American politics continues to be defined by the 2020 election. After losing decisively to Joe Biden, Donald Trump refused to concede and used the powers of his office to attempt to overturn the result. His "big lie" that the election was stolen became truth for many of his voters, creating electoral pressure on Republican politicians to reject the 2020 result. This talk explores the “life of the lie” and how it has come to dominate the Republican Party, drawing on new empirical data. </p><p> </p><p>Lunch will be served starting at 11:45 am. This event will be recorded.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Office Hours</strong></p><p>In addition to this event, interested Harvard faculty, fellows, and students can sign up for office hours to meet with Rory Truex. Slots are first-come, first-served and are available from 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm on April 24.</p><p> </p><p><strong>About the Series</strong></p><p>In the span of a few years, democracy has gone from a likely, if distant, destination for much of the world to a far more tenuous prospect. This seminar series, co-chaired by Professors Yanilda María González and Gautam Nair and hosted by the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation, delves deep into the various challenges, both internal and external, that stand in the way of building more accountable, responsive, and capable democracy. Leading scholars of politics provide insights using a wide variety of methods and expertise in countries from across the globe.</p>
