"This House believes that, although flawed, liberal democracy remains the best safeguard against tyranny."

Liberal democracy is imperfect. We test whether its flaws are fixable safeguards or signals of deeper failure. Short opening cases, rapid floor questions, then a closing vote.

Key terms set upfront: “liberal democracy” = competitive elections, rule of law, protected rights; “tyranny” = unaccountable power.

Expect arguments on voter trust, institutions, protest, and reform versus replacement. Suitable for OU undergraduates in any discipline. No prior reading required.
