The state’s role during current crises

About the event

The aim of the conference is to present how the modern state could help during multiple crises and what the new economic roles of the state are, evaluate the post-COVID recovery policies and state interventions from this aspect and find liberal answers to the identified challenges. We will discuss how liberal policies could react to the polycrisis and how we could answer these crises in a liberal way.
