A few weeks ago, students, employees, and friends of the Institute gathered in the sunny garden of the Sandgrube for our traditional summer barbecue, which was generously supported, as always, by our Förder- und Alumniverein. The barbecue marks the end of a spring semester characterized by the lively exchange of knowledge and ideas through a wide variety of events, inputs and discussion formats. We were delighted to welcome a number of local and international scholars to the Institute over the past few months, who engaged us through salon discussions, lunch talks, and interactive workshops. I also had the pleasure of delivering my inaugural lecture as Director of the Institute for European Global Studies in March at the Natural History Museum Basel.
In this issue, you will find details of these events and many more, as we wrap up what has been a busy spring semester at the Sandgrube. You will also find all the latest news from the Institute, including recent publications, media appearances and conference contributions by our members.
We wish you an enjoyable read and a lovely summer!
Warm regards Corey Ross and the team of the Institute for European Global Studies University of Basel
