  Cultural literacy and cosmopolitan conviviality

  Cultural literacy in Europe: 3rd biennial conference

It will reflect upon the role and effects of cultural literacy in different media, in the shaping of today’s politics and global economy.

  Crossing Borders: Intellectuals of the Right and Politics in Europe and Latin America

  Transnational Perspectives

  During the interwar period, authoritarian movements and regimes of the right - both of the "old" authoritarian and of the "new" radical varieties - professed their faith in national values but at the same time saw themselves as national agents of an otherwise international intellectual and political wave. Starting from the mid-1920s, a growing sense of shared goals, commonality of vision, and sense of history-making mission led them to draw on each other for inspiration and support. It soon became clear that these movements and regimes embraced ideas from each other, actively studying each other’s discourses and initiatives in the political field. The conference aims to promote a different understanding of the role of intellectuals of the interwar right who perceived themselves as transnational agents “at the service of an idea”.
