About the Event
The Journal of Common Market Studies Annual Review covers the key developments in the European Union, its member states, and acceding and/or applicant countries in the previous year, including important developments in the domestic or external arena that shape the political debates in Europe. The Annual Review is the most up-to-date and authoritative source of information for practitioners, scholars, students and researchers of European integration as well as for general readers who simply want to know more about the European Union and have a pluralism of voices.
This event will begin with institutional greetings by the Head of Department of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Bologna, Prof. Francesco Niccolò Moro. Published authors of the JCMS Annual Review will then present their research on the EU in 2023.
