SUMMARY:Select Roundtable: “Governing Europe and Eurasia: Can the European Union be Part of the Solution?” – An Event in Honour of Joan DeBardeleben
DESCRIPTION:While current debates about the future of the European Union (EU) are dominated by short-term geopolitical considerations – especially the threats emerging from Russia, China, and the United States – this event discusses selected longer-term challenges that the EU will need to address if it is to remain relevant as a political actor in governing Europe and in contributing to stability in its neighbourhood. The event is held in the honour of Professor Joan DeBardeleben to celebrate her contributions as a longtime faculty member and former director of the Institute of European, Russian and Eurasian Studies (EURUS) and as founding director and current Associate Director of the Centre for European Studies (CES). On the occasion of Professor DeBardeleben’s retirement from her faculty position, this roundtable addresses several of her research priorities and brings together some of her closest collaborators.



Roundtable on research perspectives with:




Arthur Benz, Technical University of Darmstadt: Multilevel Governance and Democracy



Miranda Schreurs, Technical University of Munich: Climate Change Mitigation



Tom Casier, University of Groningen: EU-Russia Relations



Magdalena Dembinska, Université de Montréal: Frozen Conflicts in the EU’s Neighbourhood




Personal reflections on Joan DeBardeleben’s impact on Carleton University by:




Jeff Sahadeo: From the Institute of Soviet and East European Studies to EURUS



Achim Hurrelmann: CES and its impact on the Canadian EU studies community



Natasha Joukovskaia: Joan DeBardeleben as a teacher and mentor
