This week we welcome @LokMatthijs at @FacultyofArtsUG for the HTIR colloquium - and what a way to close the year.
Matthijs will present 'Anti-liberal internationalism in the 20th century'... sharing a timely history for the present turn in global politics.
All welcome!

And here is our program for the winter bloc...
Come and think with us about emerging research on globalization's fractures, maps and postcolonial imagination, the politics of despair, Russia's pursuit of greatness, crises of democracy, and anti-liberal internationalism! Tot ziens

📢 Onderwijs en onderzoek zijn cruciaal om de grote vraagstukken van onze tijd aan te pakken! Toch bezuinigt het kabinet-Schoof €1 miljard op hoger onderwijs en wetenschap. Wij komen in actie tegen deze bezuinigingen! Teken jij ook de petitie? https://t.co/JQtw5MYRss

[Illiberalism Studies Program @ILLSP_GWU]

Arguing that illiberalism should be studied from a longer historical perspective, @LokMatthijs follows with a piece on the complex role of intellectual historians in the study of #antiliberalism and #illiberalism.

„Universiteiten moeten niet nu al op hun rug gaan liggen", stel ik in NRC.

Zie de universiteiten die al vooruitlopen op de kabinetsplannen, zoals de VU die spreekt over extra bezuinigingen, of de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, die een vacaturestop instelt!
