Colloquium “Europe's History of the Present: Universalism and Particularism”

The KFG colloquium continues with its next session on Wednesday, January 22nd, with a lecture by Junior Fellow Samuel Sadian on "Is the European Union a Hayekian 'Liberalization Machine'?"

Samuel Sadian studied politics and international relations at Rhodes University and sociology at the University of Barcelona, where he was a member of the Trajectories of Modernity research project. He has recently been a postdoctoral fellow at the Centre for Humanities Research at the University of the Western Cape and an honorary research associate at the Institute for Social and Economic Research at Rhodes University. His sociological interests lie principally in economic and historical sociology, as well as inter-disciplinary critical social theory. In his research he focuses on trade, consumption, welfare and social and political movements in light of broader debates about post-war capitalism and democracy in different world regions, with a focus on African and European experiences.
