Summer School EU-East Dialogues 2022

Summer School "The War in Ukraine and the EU Approaches to Conflicts" | 16 -24 June 2022

 

 

 

The Summer School will take the Russian-Ukrainian war as a case-study and develop students’ understanding of the interest-based approach to conflict based on their experiences in negotiation simulation, interactive discussion and personal reflections. The teaching goal of the course is to introduce students to the basics conflict resolution approaches and tools, and to contextualize this knowledge to the current war. We will start with a macro-level discussion of the EU approaches to the war in Ukraine from a conflict-transformation and legal perspectives, then the students will explore their own conflict behavior and take part in negotiations simulation. The final part of the course will scale-up received practical knowledge back to the macro-level of geopolitical conflicts and the role of the EU.

The Research Group on Law and Politics in Eastern Europe is happy to announce the Jean Monnet Module

 

EU-East Dialogues - "EU Eastern Neighbourhood: Dialogues on Civil Rights, Democracy and Trade" 2021-2024

 
 
 
Description: EU-East Dialogues Jean Monnet Module concerns the relations of the EU with its East Neighbours with a special focus on the connections among civil rights, democracy, and free and fair trade. The project focuses on non-EU member countries such as Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, and the dynamics of EU-Russia relations. The scientific literature highlighted how these countries, far from fully realising the expected democratic transition turned into a complex variety of legal-political systems. This Module aims to study this complex assortment of legal-political systems and provide students of the next generation with the required analytical background. From the EU perspective, trade is not only an economic process but also a means to export values. Therefore, the improvement and protection of civil rights are becoming crucial components of the EU trade policy towards its East Neighbours. The seminar cycles and other teaching activities combine legal studies and political science, to investigate EU policies as well as the particular variety of Eastern European systems. Within the general goals of the Module, the expected results include the following: increasing the awareness of the legal and political dynamics related to Eastern Europe; contributing to EU priority domains and policies as the promotion of rule of law and free and fair trade.
 
The Jean Monnet Module will be Coordinated by Cristina Poncibò and Cristian Collina at the University of Turin.
