2016 EUSA AP Postgraduate Student Workshop

The 2016 EUSA AP Annual Postgraduate Student Workshop will be held in Hong Kong on Thursday, 30 June 2016. The conference will be held at the Hong Kong Baptist University. The theme will be "30 Years after the Single European Act."

The conference proposed to discuss the following sub-themes in further detail:

•External Relations of the EU
•The Future of EU - Asia Pacific Relations: Competition or Cooperation?
•Common Foreign and Security Policy: Problems and Prospects
•The Eurozone Crisis
•Future of EU Political Cooperation: Integration at a crossroads?
•Limits of Institutions in solving cross-regional problems
•Role of Cultural Differences in cross-regional relationships
•Do Politics matter? - Domestic Political systems and the limits of EU-Asia Pacific relations
•Energy and Security
•Free Trade in times of economic downturn

The aim is to investigate these topics from both, an European and an Asia Pacific perspective. The conference will also be multi-disciplinary in focus. As relationships are not single-faceted, we aim to pool expertise froma wide range of fields to develop a deeper understanding of the complexities of the relationships and understand the broad range of areas that can be impacted by international political and economic issues. The EUSA AP is by nature multi-disciplinary and previous conferences have drawn together experts from disciplines such as History, Political Sciences, Law, Economics and Cultural & Language Studies. With this conference we would also invite participants from areas such as Sociology and Geography.

If you would like to participate(=make a presentation) in the workshop, please send your information, topic and abstract to the KU-KIEP-SBS EU Centre (ku.eucentre@gmail.com) by tomorrow, March 17 (23:59 PM). A limited number of hotel rooms and airfarewill be funded by the organisers.
