We asked whether, with democracy dying, political theorists ought to think about something else. The room's answer, roughly: not yet. Thanks to @jonathanfloyd.bsky.social for chairing, and to Esma Baycan Herzog, Bettina Lange, Federica Liveriero, Markus Patberg, and to a room that had plenty to say.
