Image credit/ Michael Vadon
The CERSA (Paris 2) Law & Humanities group and the Center for Critical Democracy Studies (AUP) invite you to our first conference of 2018, Trump. Year One.
Exactly one year on from the inauguration of President Donald Trump, CERSA and AUP will convene a conference aimed at analyzing the actions of the Trump Administration to date. The day will center around four themes: (1) Political decisions and the relationship with Congress and the judicial system (2) The impact on the economy (3) International relations (4) Civil society, culture and media. After carefully evaluating its first year in power, our speakers and participants will consider what course the Administration might take in the three years to come.
Free entry but you will have to register for the event in advance.
