Summer school "Europe and Culture in Debate" (31st August, 1st and 2nd September 2011) will be held in Paris and organised by Relais Culture Europe in the frame of the project SOSTENUTO, Thinking culture as a factor of economic and social innovation.
The European Union and its Member States are defining currently the political strategic and budgetary priorities for the next ten years. These negotiations are carried out in a context of multiple crises making difficult to see clearly: How to take into account the worldwide interactions? Which could be our options? In the middle of which challenges could we place culture? More than multiplying the questions and letting think to easy answers, it appears necessary to open the public debate, to exchange ideas. For the first edition of this summer school, we have then opted to open very widely the fields of perspective, i.e. to raise the cultural question in Europe in reference to changes in the world.
