General theme of the conference:
Financial and economic crisis that commenced in 2008 has rapidly reached a global scope. Its effects have
entailed a need to reflect anew on international structures of economic co-operation and contention as well
as financial markets, the role of the state and the changing character of international and supra-national
political arrangements.
Against the backdrop of the European integration and enlargement process those topics are of particular
importance. Though the crises impacted remarkably on all EU member states and candidate countries,
some of them - relatively new members, but also older member states - faced especially dramatic
economic, political and social challenges.
The conference aims at discussing relating developments as well as the status quo and future scenarios
with a special focus on the Central European region.
Particularly the following sub topics contributed to the design of the workshops:
- Crucial and influential factors and possible causes that led to the most serious social and economic
crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s
- Effectiveness and impact of social and political strategies taken by national governments and
supra-national organisations and institutions in order to cope with the crisis
- Long-term political and economic impacts of the crisis on international, supra-national and national
level - are there new political strategies emerging?
Conference Panel Topics:
Panel 1: The financial and economic crisis as a threat to post-Lisbon European integration
– the view from Central and Eastern Europe
Panel 2: National, regional and supra-national (European) responses to the crisis – particular
challenges for the new member states?
Panel 3: Representations of the crisis in discourses and images in the CEE region
