On June 14, 2021 the Université Bordeaux-Montaigne will host the second part of the online international symposium “Why private property?”, convened by Prof. Pierre Crétois (Université Bordeaux-Montaigne), Wiener-Anspach Alumnus Eric Fabri (Université libre de Bruxelles) and Prof. Cécile Laborde (University of Oxford). This event, which addresses the question of how the ecological crisis challenges contemporary theories of property, has been organised with the support of the Wiener-Anspach Foundation.

The first part took place at Nuffield College, Oxford, on May 19, 2021. The videos of each session are available online.

The programme of the second and final part is available on the website of the event. To register, please write to propertysymposium2020@gmail.com.

In 2019/2020 Dr Fabri was granted a postdoctoral fellowship to carry out a research project entitled “Appropriation without labour in contemporary theories of justice: a critical assessment”, under the supervision of Prof. Stuart White (Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Oxford). He is currently Postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Political Theory (ULB) and Visiting Professor in Political Thought at the Univeristeit Antwerpen.
