About this Event
From 6 to 9 June 2024, 370 million voters in 27 Member States will be called upon to elect the 720 members of the European Parliament. The European elections also mark the start of a new term of office for several European institutions (Commission, European Council).
Although the European elections are one of the biggest democratic exercises in the world, they are still widely regarded as intermediate (or second-tier) elections, providing a full-scale assessment of the balance of political forces at national level.
However, the 2024 elections are different from previous elections in that the number of representatives from the radical right and far right is likely to increase. This development could have political and institutional effects on the dynamics of coalition building within national political areas, as well as on the political balance and orientations of the European Parliament and the European Commission.
The Parliamentary School aims to analyse and critically discuss the outcome of the June 2024 elections and its consequences for intra- and inter-institutional relations and EU politics.
As part of its training mission, the Parliamentary School will encourage the participation of young researchers from universities in the Chair's cooperation network. To this end, a master class and doctoral research workshops will be held on the 2nd day of the Parliamentary School. The 1st day will be organized as an academic event, bringing together members of the Chair, its partners and external experts/academics, as well as representatives of parliamentary administrations.
