Hugh Pope will launch his late father’s brilliant book, The Keys to Democracy: Sortition as a New Model for Citizen Power, in a joint event with Professor Yves Sintomer, who is also releasing a new book, entitled The Government of Chance: Sortition and Democracy from Athens to the Present.

The two authors will discuss the reasons for the historic drift away from democracy by lot, as well as explore why it’s been making a comeback lately. Hosted by DemocracyNext's Claudia Chwalisz and moderated James Harding of Tortoise Media.
