YET ANOTHER CRISIS FOR EU RESEARCH(ERS)?

____Workshop Content

Since the beginning of the 2000s the EU has seen several crises. Those were not the first in the EU’s history and probably they will not be the last. With the Covid-19 lockdowns, contact restrictions and other countermeasures, we now experience yet another crisis. It is very likely that some EU scholars will argue that this crisis is promoting European integration while others will consider it as a threat. Beyond the impact on research agendas, our work as researchers is affected by the current crisis as well.
