RATSCHLAG DER VIELEN: Handeln gegen Rechtsextremismus | Workshop, Panels, Arbeitsgruppen

In the organizer's words:

In view of the latest election results, how can the many of us actively work together against right-wing extremism? What options for action do the arts and the constitutional state have, what impetus can culture provide and how can we as a society deal with the fact that some people are no longer just sitting on packed suitcases in a figurative sense? These questions are urgent and pressing - because it is not only democracy and its culture that are vulnerable, but also the people who make it up.

In light of the current right-wing extremist election successes and the anti-democratic developments of recent years, in the face of agitation, violence and new right-wing hegemonic strategies, the Council of the Many is therefore discussing options for action and the responsibility of society, politics, culture and the arts: what freedoms does this society need, but also what protection and what bans?

The spectrum of the event ranges from precise position statements on the current situation, to questions of defensive, combative democracy and strong alliances, as well as the social power and freedom of the arts, to the current, controversial discussion of options for action such as a possible party ban.

The Council of the Many creates a space to spend a day together discussing these issues, exchanging expertise, making connections and producing knowledge for action. In keynote speeches, discussions and working groups, the many will deliberate as the many. Artists, politicians, academics and activists will not only have their say, but will also work together to find answers to the question of how the future of democracy can be kept open with commitment.
