Full description from organizer

Join us for a conversation with Salvatore Simarmata to interrogate populist messaging by Indonesian political leaders. The discussion will dive into an analysis of populist rhetoric by politicians as it relates to the justification of democratic backsliding. Simarmata’s research focuses on political communication, particularly how digital platforms, automation, and the hybrid media system reshape strategies of attack politics, drive the circulation of disinformation, and influence democratic competition. Please note that 720 University Place is not an ADA-accessible space. Increasing physical access to buildings and facilities is a goal of the University, but not all buildings and venues have been updated.
