6th European Consortium for Political Research (ECPR) General Conference

The academic programme takes the standard conference format of sections, which have within them between 4 and 10 panels. These sections are organized around a common theme and major research questions.

Sections are not workshops. Rather, they provide the opportunity to present recent research to a larger audience and to expose it to the criticism, suggestions, and support of peers. The purpose of the conference is to further scientific discussion and research across all national scientific communities and across all areas of political science.

In addition to sections and panels, there are round tables, symposia, a plenary lecture and an interesting social programme.
