February to June 2024, Autonomous University of Lisbon
Presentation
The second edition of the conference cycle on “Europe and Asia: Constructions and Interactions in a divided world” continues the reflections and discussion carried out in the first edition that took place in 2023.
Between February and June 2024, prestigious national and foreign academics will address Eurasian relations in a world that, due to wars in Europe and the Middle East, is today more divided than in the recent past.
The cycle includes 14 lectures covering a wide range of topics. The objective is to give participants a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the pluralism and richness of the ties that connect the two continents, as well as their potential in building a common future.
Coordination and organization
Professors Luis Tomé (UAL) and Daniel Cardoso (UAL)
