During the 2026/27 winter semester, the lecture series ‘Conceptions of Europe from an Interdisziplinär Perspective’ will once again take place at Paderborn University. In this series, academics from Paderborn University and from European partner universities will present their respective disciplines’ perspectives on the ‘phenomenon of Europe’. On Thursday 4 February, Prof. Dr Sabine Schmitz and Katharina Buchta from the Centre for Belgian Studies (BELZ) will give a talk on ‘The significance of the Benelux Union for European integration’. The public event will take place from 6.00 pm to 7.30 pm in room H2.240. No registration is required.

The range of topics covered by ‘Conceptions of Europe from an Interdisziplinär Perspective’ extends from European history, European politics and European law, through literary and philosophical perspectives, to current social issues. This semester, there is a particular focus on relations with neighbouring countries in Eastern Europe. The lecture series is organised by Prof. Dr Stefan Schreckenberg from the Institute of Romance Studies.
