My TEDx talk finally landed on YouTube. The format doesn’t allow for the usual academic caveats and details but maybe that’s a good thing. Such concerns aside, my dad would have wanted me to tell his dad’s story and posting from Italy adds to that: youtube.com/watch?v=3eFMcP…

So grateful for today’s meetings with MP’s Alex Norris and Graham Allen about adapting our Deliberative Town Hall model to the Westminster system.

It was an honor for IDEA's director Michael Neblo to testify before Select Committee on Modernization (Archived) on ways to make town halls and other forums more deliberative and representative.

Today the Modernization Committee held a roundtable discussion with experts on civic engagement to explore opportunities to make it easier for every American to engage with the Legislative Branch.

In the newest #APSR , Michael Neblo & Jeremy Wallace examine how the COVID-19 pandemic interacts with crises of legitimation driven by the imperatives of expertise in modern governance. #polisciresearch

Expertise and deliberative democratic theory: such a powerful reminder of what reorientations to #policymaking processes can do for legitimization in the eyes of a distrusting public. We're connecting the beginning of the semester with Habermas via Michael Neblo and Jeremy Wallace.

RT American Political Science Review: In #APSR FirstView , Michael Neblo & Jeremy Wallace explore how the politics of COVID-19 can disrupt populist backlash against technocracy & the perceived legitimacy of these regimes. #APSR #polisciresearch
