November 1st of last year marked the official start of the Jean Monnet Center of Excellence “Challenges of European Integration”, which SCEUS had successfully applied for funding from the EU Commission the previous February. After work began before Christmas with a kick-off meeting, a workshop and two evening events for the wider public on the topics of populism and EU enlargement, the new year will see this work gather further momentum.

Paul Hofmarcher, Klaus Nowotny and Alexander K. Wagner from the Department of Economics contribute to the newly established SCEUS Center of Excellence on the “Challenges of EU Integration”. The project is funded by the EU Commission through a Jean-Monnet Program.

An article on artificial intelligence by Hannah Altehenger of the University of Konstanz and Leonhard Menges of the Paris Lodron University Salzburg (PLUS) will soon be published in the Journal of Ethics and Social Philosophy.
