Democracy is a Pizza. Here is why

Government EN ↓ 7 episodes

Pizza and Democracy have much in common. Firstly, both are delicious to have. But also, we must not consider only the topping (aka values), but also the cornicione (aka structural functionality), to better our pizzas and address post-democracy. This series is trying to branch out into an overlook on what is out there. Enjoy! A podcast by Francesco Bortolussi. /Credits/ Intro: Only the Braves by www.fiftysounds.com/ Outro: Schana Wana by Domenico Bini Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
