About the panel:

The T.M.C. Asser Institute’s Centre for the Law of EU External Relations (CLEER) and Leiden University are organizing a two-day Ph.D. workshop on the legal implications of the EU’s “geopolitical awakening”. The event is a follow-up of the successful PhD workshop that took place on 6-7 May.

The workshop is concluded with a public panel discussion of academics and policy experts at LUC The Hague, which will discuss the reverberation of the EU’s “geopoliticization” beyond the issues of trade and defence, which already have received significant attention. The panel, therefore, will focus ways in which the geopolitical turn affects – or should affect – other domains areas such as the environment, migration, technology, enlargement and the EU’s traditional commitment to multilateralism and the rules-based international order more generally.

Introduction by Prof. Giles-Scott Smith (Dean of Leiden University College The Hague)
