The State of the State
The State of the State lecture series focuses on the transformation of the modern state, with an emphasis on Western Europe and European integration, from a multidisciplinary perspective. The lecture series took place at the University of Oxford and was organized by Dr. Reidar Maliks of the Anglo-German 'State of the State' Fellowship Programme. The programme, which is funded by the Volkswagen Foundation, aims to enable outstanding scholars at the start of their careers to conduct research at Oxford. The programme also seeks to establish an international network of leading scholars specialising in the study of the state.
