Like a magnifying glass, the acute phase of the coronavirus crisis allowed us to take a look at the strengths and weaknesses of Austrian democracy. Those areas in which the political system was already bumpy in normal times became a stumbling block during the crisis. If parties and politicians, who are not averse to authoritarian temptation anyway, also dominate events, there is a danger to democratic coexistence that goes beyond the event itself.<\/p>\n<p>In her essay, Tamara Ehs discusses in seven lessons what we need to do better next time. Because the next time is bound to come. Be it another virus-induced pandemic, a terrorist attack or - most likely - a climate emergency. This makes it all the more important to establish a crisis-proof democracy and to ensure that its social foundations are even more important than before as a public service.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tamara Ehs<\/strong>, political scientist and democracy consultant<br \/>\nModeration <strong>Robert Misik<\/strong>, Author and journalist<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Tamara Ehs<\/em><\/strong> is a democracy consultant for cities and municipalities and a political educator.
