In person icon The EU in a Changing Geopolitical Landscape

Abstract

As the European Union navigates an increasingly complex geopolitical environment, its trade policies, institutional structures, and global identity are undergoing significant transformations. This panel examines how the EU responds to external pressures, from the contestation of the ‘One China’ policy to civil society engagement in trade governance and the geopoliticization of its institutional framework. By exploring the interplay between economic security, democratic norms, and geopolitical identity, the panel sheds light on the evolving role of the EU as a global actor in an era of heightened uncertainty
