ValEUR Research Project: ‘Governing values, governing through values, governed by values? The European Union as a risk polity

This project is led by Prof. Francois Foret at the University Libre de Bruxelles (Belgium). Aurora was part of a panel of international scholars who contribute to the project and presented their work at the Council of European Studies Conference on Sustainability and Transformation (Glasgow, 12th-14th July 2017). The project output will be an edited collection published by Routledge. Aurora’s contribution examines whether the legal protection of human dignity in Europe is threatened by the existence of two European human rights Treaties interpreted by two separate supranational courts.
