This two-day conference brings together scholars from across sub-fields to discuss identity in the European context. It will focus on the development, transformation, transmission, expression, and politicization of three types of identity – subnational, national, and European – and how these identities overlap with each other. Panels will address these themes as they relate to these three identities.
