Read our Specialist Group blog series: Europes response to COVID-19
1 July 2020

 

On the 28th May, the Greek, Italian, Turkish, German, French, Nordic, Spanish and Irish Politics Specialist Groups of the Political Studies Association came together and organised a timely workshop to discuss how different countries are managing the COVID-19 crisis. The event offered an opportunity to hear from our Specialist Groups’ experts about the latest developments in their respective countries and draw lessons on political and policy approaches in comparative perspective, as well as on avenues for future research.

 

Based on this successful online event, the PSA blog is now hosting a series of interventions from Specialist Groups’ representatives – read the our blogs here:
