Pierre Rosanvallon in conversation with Christian Schubert
:: Thursday 8 November, 6.30pm at the Institut français
One of France's most brillant contemporary intellectuals and historians, Professor at the Collège de France, Pierre Rosanvallon is also responsible for the founding in 2002 of the French intellectual think-tank, La République des idées. La République des idées proposes innovative in-depth analyses of the major economic, political and geo-strategic challenges of our time, through a series of working papers, seminars, and international conferences, as well as through a review La Vie des Idées. Pierre Rosanvallon's works are dedicated to the history of democracy, French political history, the role of the State and the question of social justice in contemporary societies. His recent output reveals a particular concern with Europe.
Pierre Rosanvallon will give an enlightening lecture on 'Democracy and European Institutions'. He will then be in conversation with Christian Schubert, correspondent for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung based in Paris, and author of Great Britain, an Island between two Worlds. Maurice Fraser, Fellow in European Politics, Director of LSE European Public Lecture Series will chair the evening.
This event is organised in partnership with the Goethe-Institut London, as part of a European series programme.
