Over the course of the past several years, driven in large part thanks to substantial grants from different schemes of the Fonds National de la Recherche and the European Research Council, the Institute has expanded substantially in staff and research coverage. Although focusing on a very diverse array of topics, the work of IPS researchers has three things in common.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>First, it is firmly centered on European politics broadly defined. Second, it has clear relevance for regional, national, and European policymakers. And third, it is  committed to methodological, theoretical, and disciplinary pluralism. Research outputs of IPS scholars \u2013 both qualitative and quantitative, but most often multimethod and multidisciplinary \u2013 have appeared in some of the best journals in the field such as the Journal of Common Market Studies, Party Politics, Public Administration, Public Opinion Quarterly, West European Politics, and many others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-free-section section\"><div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n<h2

examines the role that housing policies and housing markets play in alleviating or exacerbating economic, social, and political inequalities. PROPEL adopts an interdisciplinary and multi-method approach to identify the political inputs that shape housing markets and housing policies, trace the ways in which housing generates economic, social, and political inequalities in high-income OECD countries, and propose policy-relevant and evidence-informed solutions to address contemporary inequalities. In doing so it draws from a wide body of research spanning political economy, social policy, and inequality.<br><br>The social science on inequality and the welfare state is widely dispersed across disciplines, and in response, inequality scholars regularly adopt interdisciplinary methods and lenses. This interdisciplinary tradition enables a deep look into the causes and consequences of inequality, but simultaneously runs the risk of omitting key explanatory variables. The politics and the policies of the housing market are one set of commonly omitted variables. Yet housing deeply affects life chances by shaping people\u2019s wealth accumulation, personal safety, educational and job opportunities, and even the ease with which they can start a family. Scholars often assume unequal access to housing and housing finance is inherent to a capitalist economy. In that paradigm, governments can try to mitigate market-derived inequalities. If explicit government policy contributes to these housing inequalities, however, the response shifts to lessening policy-derived inequalities. The PROPEL projects adopts the latter view and is designed to sketch the explanatory framework needed to address those inequalities.<br><br>Prof. Lindsay Flynn is the principal investigator for PROPEL, which is funded by an FNR ATTRACT Consolidator grant of \u20ac2 million over five years (2021-2025). The project benefits from formal collaborations with the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research and the LIS Cross-National Data Center.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"link\"\n    >\nLink<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/propel.uni.lu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/propel.uni.lu<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-b7a90215-3489-46a8-9ac6-4f2809193d20\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-b7a90215-3489-46a8-9ac6-4f2809193d20\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-b7a90215-3489-46a8-9ac6-4f2809193d20\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                Banking on Europe            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-b7a90215-3489-46a8-9ac6-4f2809193d20\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-b7a90215-3489-46a8-9ac6-4f2809193d20\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;20ad60a4-3a4a-45f8-80b3-2f35f3a4436e&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list list-highlighted list-highlighted--architectural\"><li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"start-date\"\n    >\nStart date<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>01\/01\/2022<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"duration-in-months\"\n    >\nDuration in months<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>48<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"funding\"\n    >\nFunding<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>FNR;

Institutions with the authority to raise funds on financial markets to provide grants, loans or guarantees were present at the outset of the European Communities and were part of European responses to the economic crises of the 1970s, the reuniting of Europe in the 1990s and the euro crisis in the 2010s. They are now pivotal to the EU\u2019s COVID-19 response. As pan-European public financial institutions grow in importance, they face calls for greater accountability to governments, parliaments and NGOs. And yet, there is limited political science research on either the evolution or accountability of these bodies. The project\u2019s findings will generate new knowledge on: (1) the evolution and accountability of pan-European public financial institutions since 1950; (2) who is driving these developments and what this means for accountability; and (3) how accountable these bodies are in practice and how their accountability can be strengthened.<br><br>The project, led by Prof. David Howarth and Professor Dermot Hodson, Birkbeck College, University of London, runs from 2022 to 2025. It involves the publication of a monograph with a leading university press, a number of journal articles, working papers, and policy briefs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"link\"\n    >\nLink<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bankingoneurope.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/bankingoneurope.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-bc669613-ea0b-4c39-a6e7-1fa337e0916e\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-bc669613-ea0b-4c39-a6e7-1fa337e0916e\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-bc669613-ea0b-4c39-a6e7-1fa337e0916e\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                Building Effective European Banking Supervision (BEEBS)            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-bc669613-ea0b-4c39-a6e7-1fa337e0916e\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-bc669613-ea0b-4c39-a6e7-1fa337e0916e\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;20ad60a4-3a4a-45f8-80b3-2f35f3a4436e&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list list-highlighted list-highlighted--architectural\"><li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"start-date\"\n    >\nStart date<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>01\/09\/2020<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"duration-in-months\"\n    >\nDuration in months<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>36<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"funding\"\n    >\nFunding<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>FNR CORE<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h5 class=\"text-18 has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"project-team\"\n    >\nProject Team<\/h5>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>David Howarth;

In order to achieve the objective of banking system stability under the constraint of financial globalization, a new system of supranational banking supervision has been established. This new institutional framework is characterized by distinct roles for the European Banking Authority (EBA) and the European Central Bank (ECB) in relation to National Competent Authorities (NCs), with the aim of fostering convergence in supervisory practice. Indeed, despite the European Union (EU) regulatory framework for credit institutions, considerable divergence in national supervisory practice remains \u2013 which could be detrimental to the stability of European banking systems.<br><br>The BEEBS research project, which is funded by a \u20ac540.000 grant under the FNR CORE scheme, seeks to investigate the issue of divergence in national supervisory practice and to assess the on-going efforts to harmonize these practices. In particular, the project examines the pressures encouraging supervisory convergence created by the operation of the three European supervisory jurisdictions and asks if whether the EBA and ECB have sufficient institutional capacity to ensure a supervisory level playing field.<br><br>The team for this project, which is running from 1 September 2020 to 31 August 2023, is composed of Prof. David Howarth, doctoral researcher Laura Pierret, doctoral researcher Farida Valieva, and associated advisor Jakub Gren.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item

While it has so far been successful, the evolution of the ECB remains deeply problematic, both in terms of legality and legitimacy. It faces a conundrum of independence and democracy that remains unsolved. EU legal and political science scholarship has hitherto avoided addressing the problems that the ECB\u2019s redistributive policies pose to democratic legitimacy in the EU, not least because of how they fundamentally constrain Member States economic policies.<br><br>EMULEG proposes to re-define the institutional framework of the EMU. It analyses whether the ECB\u2019s independence is too high in light of the increasing polarization of opinions on its policies and the growing importance of its decisions, and whether there are better alternatives that allow for a rebalancing of independence and democratic legitimacy. For this purpose, team members are comparing the legal framework of the independence of the ECB to three other central banks, as well as the institutional reality of accountability towards political institutions and the public. The aim is to formulate advice on possible reforms including both changes to the ECB\u2019s legal framework and the institutional practice of central bank accountability in the EU, with the aim of finding a better balance between effective policies in the pursuance of collective goals and democratic legitimacy.<br><br>Prof. Anna-Lena H\u00f6genauer and Prof. Joana Mendes are the principal investigators for this project, funded by a \u20ac400,000 grant from the Institute for Advanced Studies. Dimitrios Argyroulis and Nikolaos Vagdoutis work as postdoctoral researchers on the project which is running from 1 June 2021 to 31 May 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li

2017-2022. ELWar aimed to fill the gap in our understanding of electoral legacies of war by analyzing the evolution of political competition over the course of more than two decades in the six postwar states of Southeast Europe: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia. Organized around three thematic areas\/levels of analysis \u2013 voters, parties, communities \u2013 the project aimed to make a series of important contributions. Through a combination of public opinion research, archival research, and tools of natural language processing, the project answered to which extent postwar elections are decided by voters\u2019 experiences and perceptions of the ended conflict, as opposed to their considerations of the parties\u2019 peacetime economic platforms and performance in office. It also shed light on the influence of war on electoral strategies, policy preferences, and recruitment methods of postwar political parties. And it helped expose the mechanisms through which war becomes embedded into postwar political competition on the community level and thus continues to exert its influence even decades after the violence has ended.<br><br>The project team consisted of the principal investigator Prof. Josip Glaurdi\u0107, two postdoctoral researchers Dr. Christophe Lesschaeve and Dr. Michal Mochtak, and the project assistant Ms. Daniela Janeva.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header

European integration and the European Union. It functions as a source of ideas and concepts for the development of policies of relevance to Luxembourgish and broader European society. The RSI builds upon two rounds of JMCE funding over the 2015-2022 period. The RSI focuses on cross-cutting issues linking matters such as economic integration, constitutional and institutional evolution, the conceptual understanding of historical processes, the national and international dimensions of integration and the interaction of the various public and private actors involved in shaping the integration process. The RSI contributes to our continued efforts to initiate and advance policy debates that bridge disciplinary divides with the aim of developing policy relevant ideas to shape the development of the EU. It ensures the ongoing development of a vibrant academic community to conduct critical research and scholarly discourse at the highest level, with the publication of results in leading peer-reviewed publications and the maintenance of a strong online presence. The JMCE reinforces the position of the University of Luxembourg\u2019s Robert Schuman Initiative as an important and internationally recognized research community engaged in the ongoing exploration of the possibilities and challenges to the future of European integration.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n

He started his mandate with a ceremony on 28 November 2019 at the Cercle Cit\u00e9, in the presence of His Royal Highness the Grand Duke. The programme of activities envisaged for his mandate builds upon the strong foundations laid for the Chair by Prof. Jean-Paul Lehners during the previous eight years. Teaching and research activities continue to be actively developed within the University, as is an ambitious agenda for wider public engagement in terms consistent with the University of Luxembourg\u2019s unique role and responsibilities as the sole university in the country. Reflecting both Prof. Harmsen\u2019s own academic background and the privileged position of Luxembourg as one of the main sites of the institutions of European governance, greater emphasis is also placed on the roles assumed by differing European institutions in the protection of human rights and the reciprocal processes of learning that may be engaged on this basis with other global regions. In keeping with the mandate of the UNESCO Chair, the ongoing development of international links further assumes a prominent place in the Chair\u2019s activities. This builds on the Chair\u2019s existing, extensive participation in networks such as the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation\/Global Campus on Human Rights and the Association of Human Rights Institutes, as well as through utilizing the distinctive opportunities offered by the UNESCO Chairs\/UNITWIN programme.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li

focus the creation of an ambitious interparliamentary assembly between Germany and France in 2019. Consisting of 50 representatives from the French Assembl\u00e9e and 50 from the German Bundestag, the Franco-German Parliamentary Assembly (FGPA) aims to control and give new impetus to bilateral intergovernmental relations. Furthermore, the young assembly claims to be a watchdog for the implementation of the Franco-German Treaties. Through personal interviews and content analysis of various protocols, resolutions, and speeches, this project traces the negotiations of the Franco-German working group that elaborated the parliamentary agreement as they were experienced by the members of the German Bundestag and the French Assembl\u00e9e. The project also has a policy dimension that goes beyond the FGPA, as it aims to provide insights into the processes of interparliamentary cooperation and recommendations for their institutionalization.<\/p>\n\n<p>The project is carried out by the doctoral researcher Henriette Heimbach under the supervision of Prof. Anna-Lena H\u00f6genauer.

Over the years, the excitement has faded, and many nations with long democratic traditions have de facto blocked such innovations due to their seemingly insurmountable technological failure to reconcile demands of high assurance of the accuracy of the election result along with vote privacy while ensuring that the system is usable and understandable. Meanwhile, the world is dealing with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has accelerated the digitalization of society and opened opportunities for a step forward in the sphere of voting technology. This project brings together political science, law, and computing science to find practical, political, and technological solutions firmly rooted in legal theory that may enable broader implementation of e\/i-voting in Europe. This interdisciplinary project will expose both positive and negative experiences of e\/i-voting, provide an overview of current technological developments and their possible correspondence with legal norms, as well as provide guidelines to decision-makers on reforming electoral systems in line with technological progress.<\/p>\n\n<p>The project is carried out by the doctoral researcher Leo Fel under the supervision of Prof. Josip Glaurdi\u0107 and Prof. Peter Y.A.

ruled by unstable and fragile regimes where politicians use social polarization to maintain power &#8211; has been intensified by the state of de facto collapse of the process of Europeanization and the decreased interest of the EU in the region, as well as the entry of outside players like Russia and China into regional politics. This state of affairs in SEE is the direct product of policies implemented by different EU-level political actors over the past three decades, as well as of the rational calculations by the regional politicians on how to solidify their hold on power. The central question of this project is: How and why has the EU (un)intentionally contributed to the collapse of Europeanization and to the democratic backsliding in Southeast Europe? The project will lift the veil of policymaking and political negotiations within the EU and between the EU and SEE countries, and expose how and why EU policies toward SEE are failing to promote democracy, but are instead encouraging authoritarianism. Lessons learned and recommendations made will be portable across regions and will serve the EU in the process of future European Neighborhood Policy evaluation and making.<\/p>\n\n<p>The project is carried out by the doctoral researcher An\u0111ela Mi\u0107anovi\u0107 under the supervision of Prof. Josip Glaurdi\u0107. It is funded by the AFR scheme of the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"section section wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-section\">\n    <div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n        \n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"discover-more\"\n    >\nDiscover more<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover quick-link-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-item\">\n    <a\n                    href=\"https:\/\/www.fnr.lu\/#\"\n                    class=\"quick-link\"\n            target=\"_blank\"\n    >\n            <span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n                <span class=\"quick-link__text\">\n                    FNR                <\/span>\n                <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--external-link \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--external-link\"><\/use><\/svg>            <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-item\">\n    <a\n                    href=\"https:\/\/erc.europa.eu\/homepage\"\n                    class=\"quick-link\"\n            target=\"_blank\"\n    >\n            <span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n                <span class=\"quick-link__text\">\n                    ERC                <\/span>\n                <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--external-link \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--external-link\"><\/use><\/svg>            <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-item\">\n    <a\n                    href=\"https:\/\/ias.uni.lu\/\"\n                    class=\"quick-link\"\n            target=\"_blank\"\n    >\n            <span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n                <span class=\"quick-link__text\">\n                    IAS                <\/span>\n                <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--external-link \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--external-link\"><\/use><\/svg>            <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traditionally centered on EU integration and policy making, the Institute of Political Science has expanded in recent years both in numbers and research focus.
