In the context of social and political struggles, resilience is closely linked to resistance. It represents the endurance and adaptability that allow resistance movements to persist over time, despite setbacks or opposition. Together, resistance and resilience form a powerful dyad, illustrating humanity’s ability both to shape its environment actively and to respond adaptively to external pressures, ultimately driving social progress and evolution.

This Europaeum Spring School will bring together master’s and doctoral researchers in Humanities and Social Sciences subjects to explore themes related to this year’s topic in European politics, society, or economic or cultural production from a diachronic and/or multidisciplinary perspective.

Participants will join lively working groups during the event and hear from experts on the central themes. Those not presenting a paper will also be allocated a role as discussant to kick-start Q&A sessions following on from presentations. Successful applicants will be provided with free accommodation and reimbursed reasonable travel expenses.

Applications should include the Europaeum application form, a brief CV, a statement of purpose (up to 500 words), and a reference letter from their supervisor or academic advisor. Those who wish to submit a paper should also add a short abstract of the proposed paper (up to 500 words).

Deadline for submission of applications and abstracts: 16th December 2024. Further information is available here.
