John Keane in Slovenia
In March 2010, John Keane was in Slovenia to give a lecture at the Faculty of Social Science at the University of Ljubljana (24 March) on the topic of Mass Media and Democracy. During his staying he gave two interviews: one to Dnevnik in which he suggested that anyone who defines Democracy as the government of the people does not understand the historical trends that have shaped democracy throughout the centuries. And one to Delo in which he remarked that parliamentary democracy has become so poisoned with lobbying that voters no longer trust the parties they once voted for.
