CALL FOR PAPERS
international conference
Promoting Democracy and the Rule
of Law – Global Perspectives
Santiago de Chile, 5-6 December 2024
The Instituto de Estudios Internacionales (International Studies Institute) at the University
of Chile, in association with the Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI), kindly
Invites you to submit an Abstract for an International Conference. This interdisciplinary
conference is part of the Jean Monnet Network EU-VALUES (EU Research and Education
Network on Foreign Policy Issues: Values and Democracy) and seeks to explore strategies
to promote democracy and the rule of law within various institutional frameworks and
policy environments from a comparative perspective.
Conference Themes
Faced with recent challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and growing geopolitical
tensions, many democratic countries are adapting its foreign policy and strategic
outlook to the new environment. This adaptation includes revising existing strategies
and developing new, agile approaches to address sudden threats and uphold democratic
principles. Against this backdrop, the conference aims to critically discuss new approaches
to safeguard and advance democratic core values as human dignity, freedom, equality,
rule of law, or human rights, both domestically and internationally.
The conference aims to explore how values related to democracy and the rule of law are
promoted worldwide by national states and international organizations and to discuss
the impact of related strategies and instruments. More specifically, the conference will
examine how strategies to promote democracy and the rule of law are implemented
globally and how principles advanced by the EU are evaluated in different parts of the
world. A special section will be dedicated to EU – Latin America cooperation in the
promotion of democracy and the rule of law.
