SUMMARY:IR 101 Under Stress: Theory and Practice at Odds
DESCRIPTION:EISA-ISA JOINT ROUNDTABLE     ZOOM EVENT: WEDNESDAY\, 15 APRIL 2026\, 16:00 CET\n			\n				REGISTER HERE\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nDescription\n\nInternational Relations has long offered conceptual maps for making sense of global politics. Today\, many of the discipline’s core concepts are being actively stress-tested by contemporary political practice. Leaders operate in a world in which the velocity of change\, the intensity of geopolitical competition\, and the personalization of power often outpace the analytical frameworks we rely on to interpret them. This roundtable asks what IR’s classical paradigms still offer to contemporary decision-makers. How might global politics look different if leaders—from Washington\, to Brussels\, to Moscow\, to Beijing—took IR 101 seriously? And conversely\, to what extent are the assumptions underpinning IR 101 unsettled by a world in which individual leaders\, domestic politics\, unconventional means and shifting norms play increasingly decisive roles? At the same time\, IR scholars face their own challenge: how to remain intellectually relevant without overstating the discipline’s capacity to predict or prescribe or how to use old concepts to explain an emerging order in class. The discussion explores whether core concepts—power\, order\, sovereignty\, influence\, and cooperation—require rethinking\, or whether they continue to anchor understanding of international change; and what can IR offer leaders and publics navigating a moment in which expertise is contested\, institutions are strained\, and world order itself appears unsettled? Through a joint EISA–ISA conversation and cross-community dialogue\, this event invites an open exploration of what IR theory helps us see when the conditions that once stabilized international politics are under pressure—and why that perspective may matter now more than ever. \nSpeakers\n \n\nBeatrix Futak-Campbell\, University of Leiden \nMaria Malksoo\, University of Copenhagen  \nJames Goldgeier\, American University \nPaul Poast\, University of Chicago

SUMMARY:After Venezuela: Regional and Global Consequences of U.S. Intervention
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM EVENT: MONDAY\, 19 JANUARY 2026\, 18:00 – 19:30 CET \n			\n				REGISTER HERE\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The U.S. military intervention in Venezuela and the capture of Nicolás Maduro have reopened questions many assumed were settled since the end of the Cold War. For decades\, South American governments believed that direct U.S. intervention in the region was politically unthinkable. European allies\, meanwhile\, relied on the United States as the principal guarantor of a rules-based international order. Today\, those assumptions no longer hold. We are now compelled to rethink core concepts such as sovereignty\, alliance politics\, order\, and hegemony. \nThis online event examines the fundamental change underway in U.S. foreign policy and its regional and global consequences\, as revealed by the intervention in Venezuela. Experts from diverse areas will discuss what kind of change this represents\, and what consequences it brings — for the United States and for the international order. How might Latin American governments respond to the realization that intervention is once again possible\, and what strategic options exist for states seeking autonomy and security? What does this moment mean for Europe\, whose political order and strategic identity have long depended on multilateralism and close partnership with Washington? And finally\, what should we expect for cases such as Greenland\, where small and strategically exposed territories sit at the intersection of U.S. strategic ambition and shifting global power politics? \nSpeakers \n\nElizabeth N. Saunders\, Professor of Political Science; Director\, Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies\, Columbia University  \nLeslie Wehner\,  Full Professor and Chair of International Relations\, University of Bath  \nTom Long\, Professor in International Relations\, University of Warwick  \nRasmus Brun Pedersen\, Associate Professor\, Aarhus University  \nSonia Lucarelli\, Full Professor\,  University of Bologna \n\nModerator \n\nRevecca Pedi\, Associate Professor\, University of Macedonia\, EISA Governing Board Member

SUMMARY:How Do We Think About Tech Disruption and World Politics?
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM EVENT: WEDNESDAY\, 17 DECEMBER 2025\, 15:30 CET \n			\n				REGISTER HERE\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Are we entering a period in which international relations are being reshaped in fundamental ways by developments in technology? From advances in artificial intelligence to the geopolitics of cyber operations\, from digital infrastructures to the growing involvement of private technology companies in global security\, technological innovation increasingly appears to intersect with the core concerns of International Relations. Yet it remains an open question how far-reaching these transformations truly are—and how they might affect concepts long central to the discipline: sovereignty\, influence\, private actors\, balance of power\, offence-defence capabilities\, among others. This online discussion aims to provide space for IR scholars to reflect on whether\, and in what ways\, technological developments are transforming global politics. Are these changes profound enough to challenge established assumptions\, or do they simply call for familiar theoretical tools to be applied in new contexts? \nSpeakers \n\nJulia Calver\, Postdoctoral Researcher\, University of Leiden\nTobias Liebetrau\, Associate Professor\, University of Copenhagen\nAndrew Liaropoulos\, Associate Professor\, University of Piraeus\nRebecca Slayton\, Associate Professor\, Cornell University

SUMMARY:Solidarity Across Uneven Terrains: Practising Care and Resistance within Neoliberal Academia
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM EVENT: WEDNESDAY\, 19 NOVEMBER 2025\, 16:15 – 17:45 CET \n \n			\n				REGISTER HERE\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Early career scholars around the world are facing a shifting academic landscape marked by relentless budget cuts and series of short-term contracts that barely allow for a predictable\, let alone dignified\, life;  the encroachment of governments on academic freedom\, the tightening grip of surveillance metrics and publication quotas (Wilsdon 2015); and the unprecedented changes brought about by the emergence of generative AI\, which has unsettlinging the very foundations of academic integrity\, research ethics\, and trust in scholarly labour itself. Yet the terrains from which we navigate these challenges are far from even: women academics continue to disproportionately carry the invisible burdens of teaching and care\, with measurable drops in research output compared to their male peers during the Covid-19 pandemic (Sinnner et al. 2021) and racialized scholars remain systemically underrepresented in ‘Western’ academia (Zvogbo et al. 2023\, Beutel and Nelson 2006). Globally\, academia continues to be shaped by the postcolonial ‘Global South – North’ divide (Mbembe 2016)\, resulting in a dominance of Eurocentric epistemologies in the Social Science  (Spivak 1988) and uneven access to publication and funding. While the introduction of  ‘diversity’ metrics by European and North American academic institutions may indicate positive change\, extractivist practices of scholars located in institutions of the ‘center’ persist and the reluctance to confront the deeper architecture of structural racism endures (Ahmed 2012). Meanwhile\, the estrangement between the neoliberal academy’s ivory towers and the life worlds of those we study has only deepened over the past decade—despite efforts to widen access for students from working-class backgrounds and to reinvent ourselves as ‘citizen scholars’ (Boyte 2008) and ‘scholar activists’ (Herring 2006). In this online event we invite the wider EISA community to join us for a reflection on the current status quo of the neoliberal academia and explore existing forms of solidarity\, care and resistance\, and the potential for change. We explore how and whether our practices can contribute to making academia more just – structurally and in the everyday\, paying specific attention to three of the most entrenched lines of academic stratification—those of coloniality\, gender\, and class.  \nGuiding Questions: \n\nHow do colonial legacies\, gendered divisions of labour\, and class inequalities intersect to shape the conditions of scholarly life under neoliberal academia?\nWhat forms of solidarity\, care\, and resistance are scholars already enacting and what can we learn from them\, especially as early-career scholars in International Relations?\nGiven the depth of these systemic inequities and the current state of the world\, can the neoliberal university be reformed from within\, or must it be abolished?\n\nSpeakers \n\nAslı Vatansever\, Bard College Berlin\nJan Orbie\, University of Ghent\nAgnieszka Marta Fal-Dutra Santos\, Geneva Graduate Institute\nAnahita Arian\, Leiden University\n\nChairs \n\nFranca Kappes\, Geneva Graduate Institute\nLeonie Felicitas Jegen\, University of Amsterdam\n\nBibliography \nAhmed\, S.

SUMMARY:Tackling Mobility Injustices: Building a Fairer Europe for At-Risk Scholars
DESCRIPTION:WEDNESDAY\, 12 FEBRUARY 2025\, 16:30 CET\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAcross Europe\, many scholars at risk face a myriad of mobility injustices that hinder their ability to secure stable academic positions\, harness opportunities\, and build fulfilling careers. Fragile refugee statuses\, fears of stigma\, and the overwhelming complexities of obtaining visas or legal documentation often force these individuals into precarious employment or limit their prospects entirely. These challenges not only obstruct their professional growth but also deprive academia of diverse and valuable perspectives. This event will shed light on the obstacles scholars at risk encounter\, explore their broader impact on the academic and research community\, and propose actionable strategies to foster equity and inclusivity. Join us as we advocate for a fairer Europe that supports all researchers\, championing the principles of academic freedom and justice. \nSpeakers\n\nVera Axyonova\,\nAssistant Professor / Lecturer in European Politics\, University of Birmingham\nReda Mahajar\,\nPart-time Lecturer in Sociology\, University of Antwerp\nAsli Telli\,\nAssociate Researcher at the Global South Studies Center\, Cologne University\nMohamed Bakhit\,\nPostdoctoral Fellow at Philipp Schwartz Initiative for Researchers at Risk

SUMMARY:A World Order Out of Balance? Power\, Populism\, and the Shaping of Tomorrow’s Global Order
DESCRIPTION:A World Order Out of Balance?\nPower\, Populism\, and the Shaping of Tomorrow’s Global Order\nWEDNESDAY\, 5 FEBRUARY 2025\, 5:00 PM CET\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin EISA and ISA for a roundtable that will explore the shifting dynamics of the international order\, focusing on the current power structure\, its characteristics\, and underlying norms. With a landscape marked by intensifying strategic competition and rising populism across the globe\, the role of key powers like the United States\, China\, and other influential actors has become both pivotal and complex. We will examine whether we are witnessing a transition toward a multipolar or bipolar system or if unipolarity dynamics persist beneath recent changes. The Trump administration’s approach\, including its rhetoric and “America First” strategy\, will be discussed as part of a broader examination of how these trends impact alliances\, global norms\, and the potential for stability—or disruption—in the international order. \nSpeakers\n\nSandra Destradi\,\nUniversity of Freiburg and Reichman University\nBarry Posen\,\nMassachusetts Institute of Technology\nNathalie Tocci\,\nIstituto Affari Internazionali\nWilliam C. Wohlforth\,\nDartmouth\n\nChair\n\nRevecca Pedi\,\nUniversity of Macedonia

SUMMARY:Beyond the Ivory Tower: Reimagining the Purpose of IR Scholarship in a World in Crisis
DESCRIPTION:MONDAY\, 27 JANUARY 2025\, 5:30 CET\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is the purpose of the IR Scholarship today? All IR scholars are acutely aware of the global chain of crises\, including wars in Europe and the Middle East\, accelerating climate change and natural disasters\, entrenched global inequality\, and various other political\, economic\, environmental\, and social challenges. In response\, IR scholars often frame their sense of vocation concerning these crises. This European and International Studies Association online roundtable aims to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing IR theorists in engaging with different global publics and to foster discussion about the role of IR scholars in promoting a more constructive global future. It explores the history and sociology of ‘public IR\,’ the translation issues that may arise when academic knowledge encounters the public realm\, and how we might reconceptualize the purpose of IR scholarship in moving beyond the confines of ivory towers and protest marches. It asks how we can progress debates about the IR scholarly vocation\, which are nearly as old as the discipline\, and thereby orient our role as scholars in a world order that is increasingly fractured and approaching breakdown? \nSpeakers\n\nNicholas Michelsen\,\nReader in International Politics\, Associate Dean\, King’s College London\nJoana Ricarte\,\nResearcher and Invited Assistant Professor University of Coimbra\, EISA Governing Board Member\nVassilios Paipais\,\nSenior Lecturer\, University of St. Andrews\nEva Herschinger\,\nHead of Research Program on Security and Intelligence\, Center for Intelligence and Security Studies (CISS)\, University of the Bundeswehr Munich\n\nChair\n\nMatti Spara\,\nPhD Researcher in International Relations\, King’s College London
