Extreme Elections? Mapping the Geopolitical and Domestic Impacts of the US Elections

Panel discussion
Thursday, November 7
18.30h – 20.30h
Ca’ Foscari Zattere

In this panel, we bring together three leading commentators to discuss the just-concluded US elections and their possible geopolitical and domestic effects. How will they shape the wider global geopolitical context? How will they (re)shape relations with the European Union? And how will they potentially impact not just US but also European politics – especially in feeding reactionary backlash, from anti-feminist and anti-gender backlash, to various forms of greenlash?

With:
Shalini Randeria (President and Rector of the Central European University)
Lorenzo Marsili (Director of the Berggruen Institute Europe)
Erik Jones (Director of the Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies at the European University Institute)

Moderator: Luiza Bialasiewicz (Professor of Political and Economic Geography at Ca’Foscari, University of Venice=
