During the 2026/27 winter semester, Paderborn University will once again host the lecture series ‘Conceptions of Europe from an interdisciplinary perspective’. In this series, academics from Paderborn University and from European partner universities will present their respective disciplines’ perspectives on the phenomenon of ‘Europe’. On Thursday 22 October, Prof. Dr Johannes Süßmann from the Institute of History will give a lecture on the topic ‘Between Integration and Power Rivalry: The Political Structure of Europe from a Historical Perspective’. The public event will take place from 6.00 pm to 7.30 pm in Room H2.240. No registration is required.
The range of topics covered by ‘Conceptions of Europe from an Interdisziplinär Perspective’ extends from European history, European politics and European law, through literary and philosophical perspectives, to current social issues. This semester, there is a particular focus on relations with neighbouring countries in Eastern Europe. The lecture series is organised by Prof. Dr Stefan Schreckenberg from the Institute of Romance Studies.
