We agreed to broadcast less frequently now – every last Wednesday of the month? And here it is.

What else is there to discuss on the last day of September in Berlin? Of course, the elections that took place two weeks ago in the German capital!

To break out of our usual circle of personal experience, we invited a guest, Alex Yusupov (@yusupovskiy): a political scientist and head of the Friedrich Ebert Foundation's Russia program, who understands German politics far more than we do!
What is the erosion of the political center? Will a new one emerge to replace the old? What is happening to the Social Democrats, and why can't the Volt party seriously compete with the rest?

What is radical (or moderate?) about the "Left"? The crisis of the welfare state: a disaster or an opportunity?

Tune in, gentlemen and comrades, comrades and ladies!
