As part of the Amsterdam Centre for European Law and Governance (ACELG) lecture series EU Law Encounters, Damian Chalmers of the London School of Economics (LSE) will present a lecture entitled Nervous Supranationalism: Migration and International Protection in the EU. The series brings leading scholars into dialogue with researchers and students on major contemporary challenges facing the European Union, including migration, democracy, integration and the climate crisis.

Chalmers’ lecture examines the role of supranational governance in the field of migration and international protection. By placing EU law in conversation with broader political and social developments, the event seeks to contribute to current debates on the future of European integration and the governance of migration within the European legal order.
