In the winter semester 2025/26, the Department of Contemporary History at Paderborn University's Institute of History is organising a lecture series on the topic of "Under Pressure. Democracy under stress". On Tuesday, 20 January, the politician Christina Kampmann will be a guest in lecture theatre O2 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. for the event "Zwischen Landtag und H?rsaal: Wie Frauen Politik gestalten".
In this series of lectures, the speakers will look at various threats facing Western democracies, such as populist movements, a lack of social acceptance and authoritarian regimes. On the one hand, it offers academic analyses of the historical origins of these central challenges. On the other hand, it enables an exchange with actors from political practice in order to learn about their personal experiences and interpretations of the situation. The series is supported by the Paderborn University Society.
