Chilean voters recently rejected an extremely progressive (and extremely long at 170 pages) constitution. It would have ensured animal rights, as well as rights to “neurodiversity” and “digital disconnection.” Ted Piccone of Brookings and the World Justice Project examines if Chile's new constitution was too progressive or just too long. Plus, can't we just enjoy the moment when the President went asking for a dead lady? And in the Antwentig, mo' Skimo than you ever hoped for.

Three years later, the peace accord—a complex effort to not only stop the fighting but also address the underlying causes of the conflict, and to seek truth, justice, and reconciliation for victims—remains not fully implemented as new political disputes and leaders have hampered its progress. On this episode, experts Ted Piccone and Vanda Felbab-Brown explain the situation and how to move forward.  Subscribe to Brookings podcasts  or , send feedback email to , and follow us and tweet us at  on Twitter.  The Brookings Cafeteria is part of the .

Democracy can mean very different things—majority rule, self-governance, the way we vote for our favorite contestants on TV dance competitions—to different people and in different places. Our lack of a shared definition of democracy adds to the confusion in times like our own, when we hear warnings of grave and growing threats to democracy. What does “democracy” really mean now in a world where almost every country purports to be democratic? Oxford political scientist Stein Ringen, Brookings Institution/Robert Bosch Foundation fellow and former Clinton Administration foreign policy advisor Ted Piccone, Mélida Jiménez, program officer at the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance, and moderator Warren Olney, host of KCRW’s “To the Point,” took up that question in a panel discussion titled “What Does Democracy Mean in the 21st Century?” a Zócalo/KCRW Berlin Event in partnership with the Daniel K. Inouye Institute and Villa Aurora/Thomas Mann House, held at the CIEE Global Institute in Berlin, Germany.

Ten years after the Iraq War and five years after the global financial crisis, the state of the international order is decidedly mixed. The international system faces a new and increasingly complex set of challenges. While the past decade has seen some successes in international cooperation – most notably the response to the financial crisis – core questions remain about whether the established and emerging powers will be able to sustain the peace, foster a system for shared prosperity and make progress on democracy, justice and human security. Brookings scholars Ted Piccone, Bruce Jones, Robert Kagan, Thomas Wright, and Jeremy Shapiro discuss.
