„Return to Europe – Reflections after 20 years of democratic renewal”
The main goal of the project is to research public perception of the democratic regime by the societies of Visegrad Group 20 years after regaining the sovereignty. We would like to find out, how the citizens, especially young people, who don’t recall the revolutions of 1989, perceive democracy. How do they evaluate transformation and its effects. Another part of the project are the interviews with experts on the same topic. Therefore project consists of focus study, omnibus poll and quality interviews with experts conducted in Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia. At the end of the project there will be a conference in Prague, a book will be published as well as two policy briefs.
