This 2020-2021 academic year, the European Studies Center, a Jean Monnet European Union Center of Excellence at the University of Pittsburgh, is organizing a virtual roundtable series on “Conversations on Europe” on the theme “Creating Europe”. The Miami-Florida Jean Monnet Center of Excellence at FIU, along with other European Union Centers of Excellence from the U.S. will participate.
In Fall semester 2020, each session will explore the EU’s motto “United in Diversity” from different perspectives (national, regional and supranational) to examine the success of, and limitations to, creating a sense of common Europeanness in contemporary Europe. We will be able to connect with experts on Europe via virtual roundtable for four conversations:
