The "Friedman im Gespräch" series focuses on the existential and political issues of our time. In conversation with guests from the worlds of politics, the arts and academia, author, journalist and philosopher Michel Friedman regularly seeks to engage in debate. Intense, controversial, and curious about emancipatory potential and clear-cut positions.In this episode, Michel Friedman talks to Bodo Ramelow about democracy: What remains of parliamentary democracy when it becomes increasingly difficult to secure majorities? How does one govern when a government can no longer be formed without extremists? Can a democracy exclude its enemies without itself becoming undemocratic? What must it endure, and what must it not tolerate? Where does compromise end and where does betrayal of one’s own convictions begin?
