The event takes place as a part of Nucleus of Capital that revisits a largely forgotten concept of Eurafrica that is closely connected with the early stage of European integration and legacies of colonialism. It brings together a dialogue with two sociologists and authors of the book “Eurafrica – The Untold History of European Integration and Colonialism”, Peo Hansen and Stefan Jonsson, and Nina Støttrup Larsen. During the conversation the speakers will touch upon colonialism’s decisive bearing on the founding of the European Union in the postwar period. The speakers will also discuss the conspicuous absence of these matters from the contemporary debates and scholarship on European integration, its historical origins, and its current relationship with African countries. The conversation takes place from 17:00 tot 18:00 and will be in English. Register via gerda@platformpost.nl to receive the Zoom link.
