The 17th edition of the BİLGİ Newsletter presents the latest research, projects, and academic initiatives of the European Institute. This issue highlights two major new projects: ValEUs – Foreign Policy Issues: Values and Democracy and PLEDGE: Politics of Grievance and Democratic Governance, both of which examine critical challenges in European governance, democracy, and foreign policy.
In addition, the newsletter features insights from the Jean Monnet Chair on Norm Diffusion and Turkey-EU Relations (BİLGİNormsEU), reflections from our scholars, updates on the activities of the German Studies Unit, and testimonials from faculty and students. Through these contributions, the European Institute reaffirms its commitment to advancing academic discourse on European integration, democratic governance, and policy development.
We invite you to explore this edition, which offers in-depth analyses, research findings, and discussions on the evolving dynamics of the European Union and its global engagement.
