Academic Activities 2020/2021 with the presence of students at the Campus (Lisbon): Classes are work according to the timetable provided and students are distributed in 3 classes.

Estoril Political Forum 2020
In light of the new preventive measures announced as to contain COVID-19, IEP-UCP had to convert the Estoril Political Forum into an online event taking place between the 19th and 22nd of October.
The content of the programme remains the same, but the sessions will take place only in the afternoon, in order to allow our speakers residing in the USA and Brazil to participate in the entire event. To guarantee the realization of the entire programme and the quality that we are recognized for, we had to include one more day (Thursday, 22 October) in addition to what was initially planned (19-21 October).
This edition's theme will be "New Authoritarian Challenges to Liberal Democracy".

"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".
