ABSTRACT
This Project is interested in assessing the nature and evolution of the relationship between Germany and Italy in the framework of the EU from a social science perspective.
The special focus of the Pre- and Post-Doc Colloquium will be on the three major crises - the euro-crisis, the refugee crisis, and the Covid-19 crisis - Italy, Germany and the rest of Europe have recently gone through. The goal of the colloquium is to compare and contrast their responses by assessing how these crises affected the politics, economy, society as well as the inter-and trans-national relations of both countries in the European context.
