Information
[This is a machine translation]
The set of rules governing our free and democratic society is called the “free and democratic basic order.” Who gets to participate? Can positive political campaigns through games bring about change, and if so, how? And should they? In this roundtable, we want to work with you to explore how games can contribute to political discourse and develop strategies for using games in political discussions. Joining us at the table will be Olaf Zimmermann (Executive Director of the German Cultural Council), Prof. Dr. Linda Breitlauch (Trier University of Applied Sciences), and Mai Huyen Võ Diệu (Playing History). The discussion will be moderated by Prof. Lena Falkenhagen (HBK Essen).
