‘A New Kid on the Illiberal Block? Slovenia under Janša '

Since becoming Prime Minister once again last year, Janez Janša has attracted significant international attention for his government's policies vis-a-vis academic independence, his attacks on independent journalists and media, and his interventions on social media. Our panel of experts will speak in detail about the consequences of Janša's actions in Slovenia and their likely ramifications in the European Union and beyond.
