Welcome to the 14th Biennial Conference of the European Union Studies Association in Boston!
With 126 panels, nearly 500 researchers and practitioners from over 250 institutions across the
world are participating in panels, plenaries and roundtables, making this one of the largest EUSA
Conferences. We have a diversity of topics and disciplines represented in the program, along
with key plenary sessions, followed by evening receptions open to all participants.
Among the highlights of the program is an evening plenary panel on Friday: Neoliberal Policies
and their Alternatives, followed by a keynote lecture by Thomas Piketty, Inequality in the
Europe- and What the EU Could Do About it. Immediately thereafter, there is a reception hosted
by the Journal of Common Market Studies. Two other plenaries will focus on the Future of EU
Federalism, and the Future of Transatlantic Relations, the latter featuring Baroness Catherine
Ashton (former High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy). A
panel and discussion Honoring Lifetime Achievement in European Studies Award Recipient
James Caporaso, former Chair of EUSA, will take place on Saturday during the lunch time
session.
A presentation of EUSA Prize Winners will be held on Thursday Evening, where we will award
the Ernst Haas Fellowship, Lifetime Achievement Award, Best Book, Best Dissertation and Best
Paper Prizes. This will be followed by a EUSA Reception. There are also a number of interest
group business meetings listed in the program that conference participants are welcome to attend.
The European Union Studies Association is grateful for a generous conference grant from the
Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Commission, and logistical assistance, financial
sponsorship and organizational support from the Journal of Common Market Studies, College of
Europe, Fulbright Commission, Northeastern University, and the University of Pittsburgh, which
supports EUSA on its campus. There will be a special Journal of European Public Policy/EUSA
Special Issue drawn from the nominated papers presented at the Conference.
Special thanks to the Program Chairs, Craig Parsons and Nicolas Jabko for their tremendous hard
work in creating an outstanding program. Thanks also go to the outgoing EXCOM, and the
recently elected new EXCOM members for their willingness to engage and support EUSA
activities. On behalf of EUSA, enjoy the conference!
