Joint conference to honour the memory of János Kornai 

2023-04-27 16:24:07

CEU Democracy Institute, Corvinus University of Budapest, and Harvard University jointly organize the symposium of János Kornai.

The three institutions, which had developed strong intellectual and emotional bonds with Kornai –organize the event, which aims to revisit some of the highlights of his oeuvre to find methodological guidance to address complex, real-world problems of our turbulent times and to continue Kornai’s intellectual legacy. 

The conference aims to lay the foundation of a future János Kornai Research Institute by bringing together various generations of scholars, who have been influenced by his work. The organizers are looking forward to welcoming established and young scholars as well as encouraging an open, pluralist, and diverse atmosphere at the conference. 

The symposium will be held in Budapest on May 15-16 (May 15 at Corvinus, May 16 at CEU DI) in hybrid format.
