ECIPE Seminar: How Can Liberalism Beat Nationalism in Europe?

October 24 2018
Venue: ECIPE Office, Avenue des Arts 40, 6th floor, 1040 Brussels
Speakers: Heather Grabbe, Sophia Gaston
Time: 12:30

Please join us for a lunch event with Dr. Heather Grabbe and Sophia Gaston.

Liberalism in Europe is on the retreat. Populist-nationalist parties have made progress in elections across Europe, and influenced both national and European debates about the open society and the institutions that underpin it. What are the key factors behind the rise of anti-liberal populism? What effects is it having on the EU? What are the best ways for liberals to defend and advance the principles of an open society?
