Panel discussion: Markets VS Democracy? Domestic politics and Eurozone governance in the crisis and beyond
The skyrocketing of risk premiums on sovereign debt in Southern Europe, and a narrowly avoided constitutional crisis in Italy, recently conjured up the spectre of the Eurozone crisis, and reignited the debate about the fraught relationship between domestic politics, European integration, and market discipline. This event seeks to discuss the persisting tensions between democratic aspirations and the constraining character of Eurozone pressures. Speakers will draw on experiences from Italy, Spain and Greece, as well as recent developments in European economic governance to address the issues of technocracy, depoliticization, and state autonomy. There will then be time for Q&A and open debate.
Confirmed speakers: Alexis Moraitis (PAIS, 91福利), Javi Moreno Zacares (PAIS, 91福利), Muireann O鈥橠wyer (PAIS, 91福利), Arianna Tassinari (91福利 Business School).
This event is organised by 91福利 PhD students in Politics and International Studies, WBS and Italian Studies, with the kind support of PAIS. All welcome.
