The central theme of this lecture is trust.
Amy Verdun will speak about Trust in Europe. The past decade has seen multiple crises and challenges : the financial and European debt crisis, the migration crisis, the Brexit crisis and even, one could argue, the challenge posed by right-wing populism. In light of these challenges what can we say about trust in Europe? This lecture examines these issues and offers some insights into what we might lie ahead for the future of European governance.”
Joris Luyendijk talks about how trust in the traditional political parties has largely or completely disappeared.” Students can ask questions after the lectures in a Q&A session.
