Ben Ansell & David Runciman: The Past And Future Democracy

The full breadth of political thought is potentially on display here, as Cambridge University Professor of Politics David Runciman discusses his boldly named new book The History of Ideas, based on the similarly named spin-off of his Talking Politics podcast, which delves into the origins of major political concepts. He’ll be in conversation with fellow professor Ben Ansell, author of the equally inquisitive Why Politics Fails.
