There was something to learn from each discipline. A senior research fellow focusing on media and democracy in central and eastern Europe, Dr. Ainius Lasas1 started the evening. However, he did not give a presentation, but began the event with a provocative discussion about democracy and media in Lithuania. He asked the audience to re-imagine democracy where the legal system works for the people, where corruption is minimized, and the elections are fair.
