Events

From a rostrum in the capital of Georgia, a leading European intellectual will address a local and international audience. 

Europe is for many – especially viewed from the supposed periphery – not merely a geopolitical actor, but a symbol of freedom, justice and dignity. At the same time, in light of the increasing distance to such an old and crucial partner as the U.S., the threat from Russia and the rise of a new and loud nationalism, Europe is faced with the task of redefining itself. Perhaps Georgia, which has been exposed to imperial threats for centuries and yet has always managed to start afresh, is a place from which Europe can reflect anew on its own path.
