The UK, Ireland & The European Union in a Time of Crisis
Confronting the Coronavirus Pandemic
In this seminar, we will interrogate how Ireland, the UK and the EU have responded to this crisis. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, and bringing together scholars and practitioners from the social sciences, arts and humanities and health sciences, we will explore differences in these responses, and their consequences. The seminar thus aims to provide an expansive overview of responses to the pandemic, overlaps and gaps, and what lessons may be drawn.
