Wednesday and Thursday 24 and 25 April, 12-18 and 9-13
The workshop will discuss current challenges to Nordic institutional cooperation from a historical and cross-disciplinary perspective. While it is often claimed that europeanization and globalization undermines Nordic institutional cooperation, some – like Gunnar Wetterberg – are arguing that globalization and the present crisis of the EU present a window of opportunity for re-configurating and intensifying Nordic institutional cooperation.
During recent years, security policy has become the most vibrant and visible field of Nordic cooperation. What does this change mean for the Nordic brand both within and outside Norden? Are there dangers involved? What does it imply for the traditional fields of Nordic cooperation such as welfare and culture? What consequences does it have with regards to the traditional institutions for Nordic cooperation, i.e. the Nordic Council and the Nordic Council of Ministers?
The workshop aims at initiating a discussion on ways of grounding and developing Nordic institutional cooperation in the 21st Century.
The workshop is arranged by the Jean Monnet centre at Aarhus University and the network Nordic cooperation revisited (funded by Nordforsk)
