Popper, the open society and democracy - a critical juncture?

Please join a discussion on democracy, open societies and are we currently at a critical juncture in political freedom and consequently, human progress? Popper’s masterpiece ‘The Open Society and its Enemies’, a powerful philosophical defence of democracy, tolerance, science and humanism, will also be discussed in this context. As always, some 'plain English' material will be provided to stimulate discussion. And as per each Meetup, will head to the Civic Labour Club (open Easter Sat) after the meet for a coffee/drink and continued discussion. (We have access to the closed library this Saturday via back entrance - call me on 0402 305 251 to help you get in if required) Cheers, Todd
