Seminar on European Politics in the New Millennium

Chaired by Jeffrey Anderson, this seminar series invites scholars working on contemporary empirical and theoretical issues in the study of post-1989 Europe to present their research to the Center and larger Georgetown community.

Meeting 3-4 times each semester, the series revolves around lunchtime presentations of written works-in-progress, which often are issued subsequently as CGES working papers. Where indicated (*), the seminar was undertaken in conjunction with the American Consortium on European Studies (ACES), of which CGES is a member.
