Following the great success of the Good Society debate, which brought together an unprecedented number of academics, politicians and activists to discuss the future of European social democracy, the organisers (Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, Social Europe Journal, Compass and Soundings Journal) have decided to continue this vital discourse.

Building on the results of the first Good Society debate, we will discuss the future priorities of social democracy in more detail. Organised in four thematic streams (Democracy, Sustainability, Equality and Organising) that will run until June, we will publish three articles per week in which authors set out their vision for the future.

Please visit the Social Europe journal website to follow the Good Society debate.
