Opening Conference of the Research Network on Trade Politics in North America and Europe (TRADEPOL)

Join TRADEPOL’s international experts to discuss the impacts of trade wars, economic coercion, and increased traderelated political contestation:

• Which political actors gain influence in the new policy environment? Which ones lose out?
• Which other policy priorities are linked to international trade? Which ones are marginalized?
• Which new patterns of international cooperation and conflict can be observed?
• What remains of the inclusive trade agenda?

TRADEPOL is housed in Carleton University’s Centre for European Studies. The Network is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) through a Partnership Grant (2026–33), and by contributions from the partner organizations.
