Annual Conference – Programme Available

After a successful joint effort of the Regional Studies Association (RSA) and the Leibniz ScienceCampus in September 2022 in Leipzig, Germany, the cooperation this year ventures outside the familiar EEGA headquarters. The united aim is to combine both – historically informed research and current political issues in Southeastern Europe. The conference is less devoted to strictly historical issues but offers a global and policy oriented approach. Entitled “Unfinished Statebuilding and Contested Democracies,” the conference zeroes in on a curated selection of themes that hold paramount importance for the region amidst the current geopolitical landscape. This initiative is particularly tailored for professionals in the humanities and social sciences with a keen interest in Southeastern Europe, emphasizing the post-Yugoslav nations and Albania.
