Common Session Rotterdam (Autumn 2015)

Borders and the European Solidarity Project

The autumn Common Session of 2015 will be organised from 2 to 4 December (with a welcome reception on the 1^st and excursions on the 5^th) at the Erasmus University Rotterdam on the theme Borders and the European Solidarity Project.

The aim of this common session is to reflect on the question where the borders of Europe currently lie, both in a literal and in a metaphorical sense. Politicians often talk about the ‘European values’, but what are these values and how ‘valuable’ are they in day-to-day politics?
