Free tickets (for students and members of organising research centres)
UCLouvain, UCLouvain Saint-Louis-Bruxelles and ULiège invite you to join them on Thursday 5 and Friday 6 September 2024 for the international symposium "Political institutions in search of trust".
While trust is at the heart of our systems of representative democracy, it is nevertheless the subject of a conceptual vacuum in the field of constitutional law. To further explore the various facets and grey areas of trust in political institutions, the two days will be divided into four parts:
1. Trust: interdisciplinary perspectives
With: Neli Demireva, Raquel Barradas de Freitas, Martin Loughlin, Léna Geron, Céline Romainville
2. Political ethics and trust
With: Éric Buge, Hugues Dumont, Jacques Keller-Noëllet, Cecilia Rizcallah, Michael Gordon, Koen Muylle
3. Trust, public action and decision making methods
With: Patricia Popelier, Jean-François Kerléo, John Parkinson, Frédéric Bouhon
4. The relationship of confidence between Parliament and Government
With: Christoph Möllers, Lord Philip Norton, Julian Clarenne, Mathias El Berhoumi, Céline Romainville, Sofia Vandenbosch
This collective project (FNRS) is coordinated by Frédéric Bouhon (ULiège), Julian Clarenne (UCLouvain Saint-Louis-Bruxelles), Mathias El Berhoumi (UCLouvain Saint-Louis-Bruxelles), Léna Geron (ULiège) and Céline Romainville (UCLouvain).
The event will take place at the Fondation universitaire (11, Rue d'Egmont - 1000 Brussels).
The conference will be bilingual English-French, with simultaneous translation.
