Conference “Half a Century of Democracy - Continuities, Crises, Challenges” (Panteion University - EKKE)
The Human Rights Advisor of the GNCHR, Dr. Christos Tsevas participated on October 19, 2024 in the panel “Rights and Regime Change” at the Conference “Half a Century of Democracy - Continuities, Crises, Challenges” (October 16-19, 2024), which was co-organized by the Department of Political Science and History of the Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences and the National Centre for Social Research (EKKE).
The title of the presentation was the following: “Regime Change and Human Rights: The Continuous Transition of the History of Rights”, while there was a dialogue on issues of the evolution of the protection of human rights at the national level, the influence of the international framework and the role of the Greek National Commission for Human Rights.
The Conference attempted to put under the microscope the continuities but also the key “moments” and “intersections” that make up the period of regime change. The dispute is the Democracy itself through the different phases of the regime change. The thematic axes contained the following:
- The times of the regime change
- Political processes, mobilization, parties
- Identities, values, feelings, behaviors
- Crises/Threats – Resilience – Prospects/Challenges
- Media-Political Communication
- Public policies/Reforms: Economy, State, European Union
