COVID-19 & the clash between Socialism & Liberalism | With Philosopher Srećko Horvat


(Aufgrund begrenzter finanzieller und technischer Ressourcen ist dieses Video derzeit nur in englischer Sprache verfügbar.)


In the second part of our discussion with philosopher and co-founder of the Democracy in Europe Movement (DiEM25), Srećko Horvat, we talk about the importance of introspection as well as social bonds during self-isolation in the time of coronavirus. Furthermore, we examine the clash of socialism and liberalism during this period: whether the measures taken by Western governments are infringing on our civil liberties or are proportionate to combating the crisis.
