“The Center in Paris has come to serve as a model for University-wide global engagement, featuring robust participation by faculty and students, stimulating discourse, and strong relationships with local educational and civic institutions.”
—John W. Boyer
Programming developed in partnership with UChicago and external groups aims to answer questions about the U.S. that are of keen interest to Europeans, and to tackle problems that require global solutions. Each year, the Institute of Politics hosts an expert fellow in U.S. politics and public policy to lead seminars and panel discussions on pressing issues of the current political moment. The annual Theodore J. and Angèle Lowi Lecture brings together the UChicago community, partner institutions, and the general public in discussion around pressing issues in American, European, or comparative politics.
