European High Politics and the Lessons for Britain
Speakers: Nereo Peñalver García, Prof Simon Hix, Sir Julian Priestley and Manfred Weber MEP
Chair: Anthony Teasdale Visiting Senior Fellow at the European Institute, LSE, and Director General of the European Parliamentary Research Service (EPRS)
Thursday 28 May, 18.30-20.00
Venue: LSE Wolfson Theatre, New Academic Building 54 Lincoln's Inn Fields, London WC2A 3LJ This event is free and open to all. Admission is on a first come, first served basis.
One year ago Europeans went to the polls to elect their MEPs. For the first time they had a say in who should be the next President of the Commission. Against all odds, heads of government eventually accepted EP demands that Jean-Claude Juncker should be the next President. This was a parliamentary putsch and is narrated by Nereo Peñalver and Julian Priestley in their book, 'The Making of a European President'. But big questions remain - were voters aware that they could influence the choice of head of Europe's executive? Will this lead to undue politicisation of the Commission? What really changed with Juncker's election? How could this process be better organised in 2019?
Nereo Peñalver García is a European Union official, currently working at the Foreign Affairs Committee of the European Parliament. Previously he served as adviser to European politicians such as Martin Schulz, President of the European Parliament, and Josep Borrell, former President of the European Parliament. He also worked for senior EU officials and at the EU delegation in Tunisia.
Simon Hix is Professor of European and Comparative Politics and Head of the Department of Government at LSE. He is a Fellow of the British Academy.
Sir Julian Priestley was Secretary General of the European Parliament from 1997 to 2007, and is a former Secretary General of the Socialist group at the EP. He is a past President of the Oxford Union. He has written extensively on European and British politics. He was knighted in 2007. He was special adviser to Martin Schulz' presidential campaign in 2014.
Manfred Weber is Chairman of the EPP Group in the European Parliament. He is a German politician and Member of the European Parliament for Bavaria with the Christian Social Union in Bavaria, part of the European People's Party. He sits on the European Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs.
The LSE European Institute (@LSEEI) was established in 1991 as a dedicated centre for the interdisciplinary study of processes of integration and fragmentation within Europe. In the most recent national Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014), the Institute was ranked first for research in its sector. The LSE European Institute has been a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence since 2009.
