We would like to introduce our new seminar series which is jointly organised by the Austrian Institute for International Affairs (oiip) and the Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies (wiiw):

Europe in a Fragmented World: Geo-economic and Geo-political Dynamics

In the first seminar we shall address the topic:

Europe Alone at Home? The Future of EU–US Relations

The seminar series will be introduced by Cengiz Günay (oiip) and Michael Landesmann (wiiw)

Much of the European Union’s success has been built on a strong transatlantic partnership. The United States has been Europe’s leading trading partner, its primary political ally, and its military protector. However, Europe’s importance to the US has been in decline for some time, and there is legitimate concern that a second Trump administration could further weaken transatlantic ties and pursue an isolationist economic policy.

What might the implications be for Europe’s security, stability, and economic prosperity? How can the EU and Europe respond and position themselves in an increasingly multipolar world?

Speakers in this first seminar will include:

Gabriel Felbermayr
Director, WIFO

Sudha David-Wilp
Regional Director of the German Marshall Fund Berlin

Hannes Swoboda
President, wiiw
