The International and Regional Studies Institute of the University of Szeged’s Faculty of Law and Political Sciences, and the European Public Law Organization cordially invite you to the conference titled Crossing Lines – or the Significance of Borders (9 June 2023)
Subject
In the past three years, two border crossings have plunged Europe into crisis: one was the spread of the novel coronavirus disease, which caused chaos and disruption across national borders. The other is the Russia-Ukraine war that broke out a year ago, where the Russians, in violation of several international treaties, invaded Ukraine, establishing new border lines that are still not recognized by the international community.
Key Topics
The conference’s core focus is the question of borders, boundaries, legal regulation, and legitimacy. As a result, we welcome abstracts on the following topics:
Application
Begin by filling in the abstract submission form here. The deadline for submission is 15 May 2023.
The organizers accept broad interpretations of the topics, and therefore invite everyone to submit quality abstracts (1200-1500 characters with references) in their areas of interest. Please be aware that submitting an abstract does not guarantee participation; the abstract must be reviewed and accepted by the organizers.
An email from lawschool@szte.hu will serve as confirmation of a successful abstract submission. The outcome of the selection process will be communicated to authors via email by 16 May 2023.
Conference Program
