SUMMARY:Under Attack: The State of Democracy Around the World (LWV Naperville)
DESCRIPTION:Is the world’s democratic moment coming to an end? What does the future of democracy hold? Join the League of Women Voters of Naperville for our May Ideas Forum featuring Dr. William Muck\, Professor of Political Science at North Central College.\nProfessor Muck will explore global trends in democracy\, highlighting data showing that in every region of the world\, democracy finds itself under attack. He will explore the implications of this democratic decline and focus specifically on the case of American democracy. How do you know when your democracy is in danger and how should you respond? He will also reflect on the dramatic actions taken by the Trump administration and offer thoughts on how they fit within this broader anti-democratic moment.\nWilliam Muck is the chair of the Political Science Department as well as the coordinator for the College’s Global Studies program. He teaches a variety of courses on international politics and foreign policy. His scholarship focuses on international security\, the practice of military intervention\, and the pedagogy of promoting civic engagement. He has been active in presenting research at various international studies conferences around the world. In 2018\, Bill was named a Ruge Fellow by North Central College for his contributions to teaching and learning on campus. He is co-author of the book\, Technology and Civic Engagement in the College Classroom as well as other articles on international security and higher education pedagogy. If you are in the Chicago area you may have seen Bill on ABC 7\, CBS Chicago\, Fox 32 Chicago\, or WGN Evening News offering political analysis. He is also a regular guest host for WCPT 820am radio. You can also listen to him on his weekly podcast\, The Politics Lab http://www.thepoliticslab.com/ .
