The Theme Group Contested Economic Challenges is a forum for debate and collaboration on the nature, origins, and implications of European economic experience in society, politics, law, history, and governance.

The focus of the Theme Group is on issues of social and political conflict, regulation, and policymaking in Europe, public and private governance, and (sub-)national and European Union (EU) governance. The Group also seeks to be a forum for public outreach and debate, facilitating public events in various settings.
