On 9 and 10 October 2017 ESI's Kristof Bender participated in a workshop on Europe's East-West divide, organised by the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM) in Vienna. The debate focused on different views on the future of Europe (divided visions), inequality as a factor driving the EU apart (divided wallets), and the controversy over how Europe should respond to migration and refugee flows (divided values). The workshop was part of the "Europe's Futures" project, an initiative of the IWM supported by ERSTE Foundation.
