PRIF Annual Conference: Dealing with Autocracies in a Fragmented World

The PRIF Annual Conference 2023 will discuss from an empirical and normative perspective how democracies can and should deal with autocracies in the current multipolar world. The focus will be on climate and energy policy, international development and infrastructure policy, international democracy promotion, and international security. The conference goal is to deconstruct simplistic, dichotomous views of world politics and provide nuanced views of contemporary international relations.

With the rise of China and Russia's war against Ukraine, the question of how demo­cracies shape their relation­ship with auto­cracies has become a highly topical issue. There is much talk of regime rivalry, which gets reduced to a polarized conflict between demo­cracies and auto­cracies in certain areas of academic and political debate. The reality, however, is much more complex: Relations between demo­cracies and auto­cracies can take on extremely different forms.

The PRIF Annual Con­ference 2023 "Dealing with Autocracies in a Fragmented World" will discuss from an empirical and normative perspective how demo­cracies can and should deal with auto­cracies in the current multi­polar world. The focus will be on climate and energy policy, inter­national develop­ment and infra­structure policy, inter­national democracy promotion, and inter­national security. The conference is aimed at academics, students and represen­tatives of politics and the media. Its goal is to de­construct simplistic, dicho­tomous views of world politics and provide nuanced views of contem­porary inter­national relations.

Roger Mac Ginty will receive the Czempiel Award on 12 October, 6:15 pm. The political scientist from Durham University, United Kingdom, is being honored for his innovative mono­graphy "Everyday Peace: How So-Called Ordinary People Can Disrupt Violent Conflict."
