“Justin Kempf’s ‘Democracy Paradox’ is a refreshing addition to a burgeoning set of podcasts on the social sciences. There is perhaps no more important topic and theme today than the health of democracies. And without engaging in democratic development, progress, and, in fact, regress squarely as a society or researchers or leaders we can’t collectively contribute to maintaining its health. This is what Justin helps to nurse. The podcast engages some of the leading academics and thinkers on the subject, and then goes further by posing and prodding tough but fair questions that make the authors go deeper on their work. Justin meticulously reads every book or article referenced and shows an authentic desire to grapple with - usually - unorthodox takes on democracy and the challenges that its systems of governance face. Highly recommend.”
