European security

Research seminar with Benedikt Schoenborn, C²DH Visiting Researcher

In this blogpost Dr Spero Paravantis, researcher at the C²DH, shares his personal experience as a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley where he spent the last six months working at the Institute of European Studies (IES).

The new book ‘Western Europe 2018’, edited by Cathy Hartley and published on 22 November 2017 by Routledge, features contributions from researchers at the University of Luxembourg.

What was/is European security in the context of the Cold War? How was and is it conceived? What role did “non-powers” play in European security, and how did they help define it? These were the main questions discussed during the conference held by the C²DH in March 2017.
