The World Congress 2017 is built around 21 student-led panels, offering young scholars the opportunity to present their research. The programme is complemented with expert talks (see below) and social events, creating a platform to foster exchange and debate among political science students across the globe.
The theme for the 2017 edition is "The Meaning of Politics", and our panels and expert talks will focus on an exhaustive range of areas, such as international conflicts, political economy, migration issues, mass media, democratic participation and global governance.
