SUMMARY:Workshop Determinants of EU Foreign Policy Contestation
DESCRIPTION:From the Global Compact for Migration to trade policy\, from lethal autonomous weapons to sanctions on Russia\, a range of decisions on EU external relations has been contested by states\, national parliaments\, political parties\, civil society organizations\, EU institutions and other actors at the EU and national levels. Far from being the external reflection of internal EU consensuses\, as frequently assumed\, or only the result of clashes between long-standing national foreign policy traditions\, EU external relations have become a lively battleground for different worldviews and normative commitments. In addition\, a good deal of this EU-internal contestation seems to take place in conjunction with the contestation of broader\, global processes of international negotiations and foreign policy interaction. \nThis workshop aimed to uncover and discuss the causes and drivers of such contestation: Who are the contesters of EU external relations? Why do they contest EU foreign policy? How does contestation emerge and evolve over time? How does the multilevel character of contestation (national\, European\, international) shape its nature and actors’ strategies? We plan to cover the broadest number of issue areas\, well beyond Common Foreign and Security Policy issues\, so as to embrace the largest variety of external relations matters. \nThe workshop took place on the 8th and 9th of July in Porto (Portugal) and was hosted by the University of Porto\, to discuss exciting contributions and potential projects going forward\, including possible publications. The aim was to promote a debate framed on diversity of theoretical\, methodologies\, and epistemological backgrounds around research on this area. It was also open to accommodate the diverse ways in which contestation has been addressed by different disciplines. \nThis workshop was part of the COST Action ENTER EU Foreign Policy Facing New Realities (working group 3\, contestation).

SUMMARY:Public Panel: Europe on Edge – New Realities in EU Foreign Policy
DESCRIPTION:The European Union is largely viewed as a cornerstone of European stability and prosperity. Currently\, however\, EU foreign policy experiences a broad array of new challenges\, resulting in an ongoing reconfiguration of power as well as increased contestation of liberal principles within its core values. Furthermore\, the EU has to deal with troublesome actors and neighbours in its immediate proximity. As a result\, migration flows promote domestic turmoil and enhance populist\, nationalist and anti-establishment movements harbouring Eurosceptic sentiments on one hand as well as scrutinizing existing institutions on the other. International turbulences appear in parallel to EU-domestic conflicts\, ranging from austerity\, Brexit to growing protectionist measures. \nThis panel discussed these emerging challenges to European foreign policy\, including what they mean for communication and diplomatic coordination. \nWelcome Address:\nAlexander Gemeinhardt\, Chairman of the Board\, Schader-Stiftung \nPanelists: \n\nLars Bo Larsen\, Ambassador\, Representative to the Political and Security Committee\, The Permanent Representation of Denmark to the EU\nProf. Dr. Michael Smith\, University of Warwick\nDr. Heidrun Maurer\, Lecturer in EU Politics\, University of Oxford\n\nHost:\nProf. Dr. Michèle Knodt\, Technische Universität Darmstadt \nThe foundation\, Schader-Stiftung\, and the research network “EU Foreign Policy Facing New Realities” (CA17119) of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST)\, led by Prof. Michèle Knodt\, Technische Universität Darmstadt\, organized this event together.

SUMMARY:Scientific Workshop - Communicating EU Foreign Policy
DESCRIPTION:COST Action ENTER (CA17119) Call for Papers – Research Workshop\nCommunicating EU Foreign Policy: The Power of Political Dialogue?\n12-14 March 2019\, Darmstadt\, Germany \nRationale and Aims: \nThe EU is facing new external realities. Key challenges for European societies – security\, the migration crisis\, environmental challenges such as climate change\, a stable energy supply\, or the stability of financial markets – require new strategies\, instruments and policies for developing amicable and constructive solutions. However\, while the EU is speaking with multiple voices\, it has not yet embraced the merits arising from this feature. Furthermore\, while the EU has been keen to be recognized as a benevolent super power\, its external image seems contested. Therefore\, both external perceptions of the EU\, and the EU’s own political communication need to be examined more thoroughly. Our focus on political dialogue refers to one of the EU’s key instruments for expressing its identity as a normative and discursive power. Over the past decades\, political dialogue has advanced as a flexible\, multi-purpose tool to express the EU’s multiplicity of voices. We aim to explore the EU’s discursive powers and the ways in which political dialogue is mobilized to acquire consent and coin European narratives. Zooming in on “new realities”\, we will\, on the one hand\, concentrate on specific topics such as EU-Africa relations and development; climate\, migration\, and on the other hand on the role of the EEAS as a communicative actor and dialogical power. Furthermore\, we will explore external perceptions of the EU as an aspirant super power. We will focus on images\, frames\, perceptions and narratives projected by the EU – and understood by audiences inside the EU\, in the European neighbourhood and around the world. In doing so\, we invite particularly scholars who focus on European foreign policy and the EU’s role in the world. \nPractical information: \nFinancial Support: Participants will be reimbursed for travel\, subsistence and accommodation according to the Rules of the COST Association and within the framework of COST Action CA17119. Further information: https://www.cost.eu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/COSTVademecum.pdf \nHow to apply: \nPlease submit your paper title and a 300-word abstract to info@foreignpolicynewrealities.eu \nSubmission deadline: 25 January 2019 \nFurther questions: \nFor content-related queries\, please contact the workshop organizers (Dr. Franziska Müller at fmueller@uni-kassel.de). For logistics\, please contact the COST ENTER Network Manager (Dr. Jonas Schoenefeld\, Technische Universität Darmstadt) at info@foreignpolicynewrealities.eu \nDownload the call information as a pdf file here. \n

SUMMARY:First ENTER Spring School 2019
DESCRIPTION:(Re-)Conceptualizing or (Re-)Theorizing how the EU faces New Realities\nJoin our spring school with more than 11 internationally renowned scholars and learn about cutting-edge ways to analyse current EU foreign policy. There is no participation fee\, and we offer a generous bursary to our participations. \n11-14 March 2019\, Darmstadt\, Germany \nRationale and Aims: \nThe world experiences an ongoing reconfiguration of power as well as increased contestation of the liberal global order. The EU’s neighbourhood is increasingly conflict prone and instable\, triggering migration flows and the proliferation of illiberal values. The international turbulence appears in parallel to EU-domestic conflicts\, marked by austerity\, Brexit\, nationalism\, populism and protectionism. The training school examines if traditional theories are outdated given that they employ theoretical concepts to analyse increasingly dis-jointed realities. Similarly\, the school addresses the issue whether it is time to reverse traditional inside-out research agendas\, portraying EU foreign policy as a projection of European values and interests. The training school reaches out to upcoming analysts who will conceptualize and theorize the EU facing a new world order. It aims to train and strengthen an emerging interdisciplinary community of early career researchers. Students will not only be taught the theories of yesterday but also the tools it takes to (re-)conceptualize and (re-)theorize the new realities in which the EU is situated. \nConfirmed speakers: \nDr. Annegret Bendiek (German Institute for International and Security Affairs\, Germany) \nAssoc. Prof. Dr. Oriol Costa (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona\, Spain) \nDr. F. Asli Ergul Jorgensen (Ege University\, Turkey) \nProf. Dr. Knud Erik Jørgensen (Aarhus University\, Denmark) \nProf. Dr. Stephan Keukeleire (University of Leuven\, Belgium) \nProf. Dr. Michèle Knodt (Technische Universität Darmstadt\, Germany) \nProf. Dr. Patrick Müller (Vienna School of International Studies\, Austria) \nProf. Dr. Cornelia Navari (The University of Buckingham\, UK) \nDr. Alexander Reichwein (Justus-Liebig-University Giessen\, Germany) \nProf. Dr. Michael Smith (University of Warwick\, UK) \n \nProgramme: \nTwelve 90-minute sessions between 11-14 March 2019\, including: \nTen lectures from ten international scholars to obtain an overview of theories\, concepts and approaches \nOne team work session that students can enjoy interactive learning \nOne roundtable session where the scholars discuss and elaborate on the given lectures and Q&As \nPractical information: \nFree participation – there is no application or participation fee! \nFinancial Support: All participants will receive a fixed bursary of 800 Euros towards their travel\, accommodation and subsistence in accordance with the rules of the COST Association.

SUMMARY:Scientific Workshop - EU's Climate and Energy Policy
DESCRIPTION:COST Action ENTER (CA17119) Call for Papers – Research Workshop\nEU’s Climate and Energy Policy: Perceptions and Challenges\n11-13 March 2019\, Darmstadt\, Germany \nRationale and Aims: \nThe Union’s role in developing international climate regimes and organizing international energy markets have\, together with ambitious climate and energy policies followed by several European countries\, elevated the importance of both climate and energy policies within many of the EU’s policy arenas. The workshop seeks to provide both substantive and ideational account for the Union’s engagement in climate and energy politics. It will open with an overview of the contemporary energy and climate policy landscape in the EU\, focusing on the main political trends which come along the increasingly closer entanglement of the two. Within the ideational reflection of these trends\, the workshop will focus on the self-perception of the key climate and energy actors both at the European and the national level\, as well as the reflection of the Union’s position in the international climate and energy regimes by third parties such as non-European countries and international institutions. Finally\, the workshop will seek to nuance these reflections by engaging policy practitioners. Throughout the workshop\, questions such as “What is the current state of the EU’s climate and energy policy?”\, “What ideas are attached to it?”\, “How do these ideas resonate among the member states and outside the EU?”\, “Are there any competing narratives in the perception of the EU as a climate actor?” will be tackled. \nFinancial Support: Participants will be reimbursed for travel\, subsistence and accommodation according to the Rules of the COST Association and within the framework of COST Action CA17119.
