Covid-19 Policies Roundtable - 9 December 2021 16:00-18:00 CET (European University Institute, Robert Schumann Centre) - virtual panel


This roundtable, discusses "The Pandemic in Canada in Comparative Perspective" is part of a larger workshop held locally in Florence on "The COVID-19 Pandemic and the European Union" taking place on 9-10 December 2021. The online roundtable that takes place on 9 December 2021 16:00-18:00 CET, is chaired by Renaud Dehousse, President of the European University Institute, with presentations by Ailish Campbell, Canadian Ambassador to the European Union; Louis Pauly, University of Toronto; Frédéric Mérand, University of Montreal and Kathy Brock, Queen’s University.



Panel topic: the COVID-19 pandemic has posed unprecedented worldwide challenges, to the international economic and political order, but also to the European Union (EU). In the EU we often are ill-informed about policies elsewhere around the globe. This four-person panel discusses COVID-19 policies in Canada -- a decentralised federal state, the second largest territory in the world, with different provincial health jurisdictions choosing their policies sometimes differently from one another. It also places the Canadian policy to COVID-19 in comparative perspective. This roundtable is specifically open to a wider audience of scholars, students and policy-makers who may attend this event virtually from around the globe.

Immigration Policy and Crisis in the Regional Context
Asian and European Experiences

*Explores challenges of contemporary immigration governance in the
European and Asian contexts
*Considers the strengths and weaknesses of the various political actors in the two regions
*Brings together perspectives on the immigration issue from professors, experts, and scholars from various countries in Europe and Asia

This book compares the immigration policies of EU states and Asian countries—Germany, Poland, Estonia, Taiwan, China, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam,- and Thailand—analyses the policy strengths and weaknesses of various political actors in the regions and explores what can be learned from the experiences of different states. In the recent decades, immigration policy has become a hot topic due to globalization. EU has faced challenges in immigration since the refugee crisis in 2015 when over a million migrants and refugees crossed into Europe. In Asia, immigration issue has become more complicated as the economic ties among Asian countries have grown significantly in recent years. With contributions by professors, experts and scholars from various countries across Europe and Asia, the book provides both in-depth analyses and broad perspectives on the topic, making it a valuable read for academics and policymakers alike.

Special Issue



Is the future of the European Union more differentiated?



Brexit, Schengen area, Eurozone, “opt-out” mechanisms, permanent structured cooperation (PESCO) are just some of the few examples of a differentiated integration (DI) characterizing the European Union (EU) nowadays. Integration is differentiated when, within the common framework of EU competences, not all member states are subject to the same and uniform community rules. In the literature there is a wide consensus on the fact that the different instruments of DI have offered successful solutions for overcoming possible political vetoes and stalemates, promoting deeper integration only among those member states willing to pursue it. Under this perspective, DI reflects the heterogeneity of interests of the EU Member States.

Recently, the EU has adopted several measures promoting a differentiated integration. For instance, almost all the answers adopted to overcome the 2008 economic crisis have been based on forms of DI (e.g. the Fiscal Compact). However, the future of the EU integration is not necessarily differentiated nor necessarily uniform: the most recent crisis, the Covid crisis symmetrically affecting all the Member States, has not produced differentiated answers but the adoption of homogeneous instruments (e.g. the Recovery Plan). So, if uniform integration cannot be taken for granted, DI cannot be considered inevitable either.

If, on the one hand, DI has accommodate the differences between the Member States, on the other hand it has also offered a way for third countries to be associated to the EU without being full members. This is the case of Norway, Switzerland and many Neighbour Countries. Therefore, DI has an internal but also an external dimension.

DI also poses a series of questions on the future of EU integration: how much differentiation is possible without putting at risk the entire integration? Where does differentiation end and disintegration begin? Is DI (with its complexity and, sometimes, duplication of institutions) increasing the complexity of the EU and its democratic deficit? And, finally, is the future of the EU inevitably more differentiated?

ANZJES is looking for papers of around 6,000 words dealing with all aspects related to DI: theories of DI, the implications of DI for the EU integration, DI and negotiations theories, DI in EU policies, consequences of DI for relations with neighbors (including the UK).
