SUMMARY:[Seminar] The European Commission’s response to national emergency regimes within the EU’s asylum policy
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to invite you to our upcoming research seminar featuring Florian Trauner and Federica Zardo\, who will present their recent paper entitled: “The European Commission’s response to national emergency regimes within the EU’s asylum policy: from rejection to accommodation”. \nAbstract\nNational emergency laws restricting the entry of asylum seekers have become increasingly common across the European Union. This article investigates how the European Commission responds to such emergency regimes that derogate from EU asylum and migration law\, and which combination of factors explains the variation in its responses. \nUsing a diverse case study design covering Austria\, Hungary\, and Poland since 2016\, the study traces how the Commission’s response shifted from rejection to forbearance and ultimately to accommodation\, leading to the partial Europeanisation of exceptional practices under the 2024 asylum reform package. \nBuilding on research on legal forbearance and compliance\, the article argues that the Commission’s behaviour depends not only on rational cost–benefit calculations but also on how it perceives the nature of each crisis\, and the trust in the member state involved. The findings point to a broader institutional shift\, as the Commission seeks to preserve its authority by redefining the boundaries of compliance. \n\nTrauner\, F.\, & Zardo\, F. (2026).

SUMMARY:[Roundtable] The International Court of Justice's Advisory Opinion on Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Roundtable | The Law and Politics of Climate Change: The ICJ’s Advisory Opinion on Climate Change and EU Member States\nOn 23 July 2025\, the International Court of Justice delivered its advisory opinion on obligations of States in respect of climate change\, a probable legal milestone in the planetary struggle for the protection of the environment. However\, in a context of compounding polycrises where a diversity of ecological issues – with climate change at the forefront – collide with increasing political polarisation and socioeconomic difficulties\, the veritable reach this opinion will have remains to be seen. \nBy means of interventions from speakers that have directly been involved in the case or in the campaign for its request\, this roundtable addresses three dimensions of the opinion. First\, how it came to be. Second\, what it says. Third\, what it might entail. These three lines of inquiry are dealt with from a critical perspective\, blending both legal and political considerations. \n  \nSpeakers \n\nMomchil Milanov (International Court of Justice)\nAndré Bouquet (European Commission)\nJosephine Norris (European Commission)\n\nDiscussants \n\nGauthier Martens (UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles)\nFlorine Serrault (UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles)\n\nPractical Information\nWhen ? Thursday\, 15 October 2026\, lunchtime starts at 12:00 PM. The roundtable starts at 12:30 PM and finishes at 2:00PM. \nWhere ? UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles\, Salle du Conseil & Online \nRegistration\nMandatory for catering purposes. Please fill in the form.  \n  \nThis event is co-organized with the CReSPo (Centre de Recherche en Science Politique – UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles) as part of its Environnement seminar series\, and with CLAIM.
