SUMMARY:Militant Democracy and the rule of law
DESCRIPTION:Democratic systems have been subjected to growing pressures arising from political polarization, democratic backsliding, and declining trust in public institutions. In this context, the concept of militant democracy — understood as the right of a democratic order to defend itself against forces seeking its destruction — has regained renewed prominence. The Conference seeks to explore the evolution, justification, and limits of militant democracy, examining whether and under what conditions democratic self-defense can remain compatible with constitutionalism, pluralism, and fundamental rights. Particular attention will be paid to the role of courts, proportionality standards, procedural safeguards, and the novel challenges posed by digital disinformation, foreign interference, and authoritarian diffusion.\nKostas Chrysogonos, Professor of Constitutional Law, Faculty of Law, Aristotle University; President, Greek Association of Constitutional Law\nIoannis Sarmas, Former President, Court of Audits of Greece; Former Prime Minister of Greece\nProf. R.
