The BASEES Study Group on the Baltic States is an informal and interdisciplinary forum, which meets annually to foster greater discussion, collaborative research, interaction with policy practitioners and other non-academic partners and, potentially, joint activities in teaching. Membership of the group is open to UK academics and postgraduates from any discipline with an interest in the Baltic region who are conducting research relevant to the area.

A symposium on issues of topical interest to the Baltic region and beyond is convened on an annual basis by the Study Group. The Seventh Annual Meeting will be convened at the School of Law, Swansea University on 9 May 2010, 1pm-4pm, with the following speakers:

Dr Anneli Albi (University of Kent): “Challenges Faced by Baltic and Central European Constitutional Courts in Applying EU Law”.

Dr Valters Scerbinskis (Riga Stradins University): “Latgallian Parties and Politicians before 1940 and Now”.

Dr Allan Sikk (University College London): “Postcommunism and Postmaterialism? The Foundations of Green Politics in Estonia”.
