PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS  IN POLAND: CHALLENGES – CONTEXT – STRATEGIES

In the wake of the upcoming parliamentary elections in Poland, we cordially invite to an academic conference to be organised on May 30th and 31st  2023 at the Faculty of Social Sciences (3 Koszarowa Street). On the first day we will hold a debate with representatives of Polish parliamentary parties. The pre-election debate is  organised and moderated by students of University of Wroclaw.

Beyond that, the conference will include panel discussions with Polish and foreign experts who will discuss strategies for creating electoral lists, the conduct of the election campaign in the media, the issue of the rule of law or the significance of the forthcoming elections for the functioning of the European Union. The event will have a hybrid format allowing for in-person and online participation. The pre-election debate will be simultaneously translated from Polish into English. The language of the discussion panels will be Polish or English.

The scientific supervisors of the conference are Prof. Anna Pacześniak and Prof. Aleksandra Maatsch. The debate with politicians is organised by the European Studies Students’ Scientific Circle “Project Europe” and the Scientific Circle of Interdisciplinary European Activities.

The conference is funded by the Jean Monnet Chair at UWr and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
