The Václav Havel European Dialogues 2021: The Other Europe - the second day of the conference The Václav Havel European Dialogues is an international project that aims to initiate and stimulate a discussion about issues determining the direction of contemporary Europe while referring to the European spiritual legacy of Václav Havel. This idea takes its main inspiration from Václav Havel’s essay “Power of the Powerless”. More than other similarly focused projects, the Václav Havel European Dialogues aims to offer the “powerless” a platform to express themselves and in so doing to boost their position within Europe. 15:00 LAUNCH OF DAY TWO OF CONFERENCE Jana Ciglerová, moderator 15:00 PANEL II – THREE-GENERATIONAL DIALOGUE Milan Šimečka, philosopher and literary reviewer (historical recording) Martin Milan Šimečka, writer and journalist Michal Šimečka, Member of European Parliament Jana Ciglerová, moderator 16:00 PANEL III - THE OTHER EUROPE TODAY Zuzana Čaputová, President of the Slovak Republic Olga Richterová, Vice-Chair of the Committee for Social Policy of the Czech Chamber of Deputies Marianne Kneuer, President of the International Political Science Association Timothy Garton Ash, University of Oxford Ivan Krastev, IWM Vienna Michael Žantovský, moderator 17:00 CULTURE PROGRAMME 17:20 CLOSE OF CONFERENCE Michael Žantovský, director of the Václav Havel Library The Other Europe Project : https://www.othereurope.com The Václav Havel European Dialogues Project : https://www.vaclavhavel.cz/en/dialogue
