International Meetings in Political Studies
International Meetings in Political Studies (Est. 1993): Confronting the Authoritarian Challenge
30th Annual Edition
27-29 June 2022
The first volume of a three-volume edition on the International Annual Meetings in Political Studies. This first volume – which is available at the IEP – covers the first 10 editions, from 1993 to 2002.
"Palestra Anual Alexis de Tocqueville 1998-2018" (Alexis de Tocqueville Annual Lecture 1998-2018) Book
Essentially, the book brings together the Alexis de Tocqueville Annual Lectures, which began in 1998. These are formal ceremonies to award diplomas which are preceded by a lecture by a distinguished guest speaker and followed by a formal dinner.
The name Alexis de Tocqueville may not be widely known, but it was -and continues to be- a name that expresses with particular elegance and distinction the project dreamt by IEP-UCP: a project of university autonomy, of orderly and quiet defense of freedom, of refusal of what Tocqueville called a "sterile conflict between Old Regime and Revolution" or "perpetual oscillation between serfdom and abuse".
