Series of panel discussions
“From Debt and Austerity to a Reclaim of Democracy”
Nicos Poulantzas Institute and transform! launch a series of panel discussions considering the European Integration experience, posing as spikes, issues that characterize the evolution of the European financial and political crisis, while examining them in a broader perspective.
The debt as a governance technique, the uneven geography of the European space, the continuities and discontinuities of the european integration project, but also the potential for a left political project in Europe are some of the issues to be discussed with the participation of academic scholars, social scientists and political personalities from Greece and abroad.
There will be simultaneous translation.
