The politics of accountability

General information Admission Process Payment Form

6 hour course by Yannis Papadopoulos (Université de Lausanne)

  • Schedule: 22-23 June, 2023 (10:00–13:00)

This course will cover core topics addressed by research on political and administrative accountability. It will first focus on accountability in the democratic state, exploring how both governments and bureaucracies are held accountable, and with what effect. In a second session the approach will “scale up” to survey the main accountability issues in the European Union and at the global governance level.

The sessions will take place in an interactive way and require from the participants to read in advance the material that will be discussed in class. Each session is divided in two subsessions with distinct reading material.
