DESCRIPTION:At a moment of democratic crisis in Europe\, when far-right par
 ties are gaining power\, courts are expected to act as key defenders of ri
 ghts and freedoms. In La démocratie en état d'urgence\, Stéphanie Hennette
  Vauchez and Antoine Vauchez examine how France's highest courts—the Counc
 il of State and the Constitutional Council—have often reinforced executive
  power rather than limiting it\, revealing how judicial practices may be c
 ontributing to the erosion of democratic trust and legitimacy. Open to the
  public. No registration necessary. A light lunch will be served.\n	\n	Stéph
 anie Hennette Vauchez is a Professor of Public Law at Paris Nanterre Unive
 rsity and a senior member of the Institut universitaire de France. Her res
 earch explores gender\, bioethics\, secularism\, and restrictions on freed
 oms\, with recent works including La démocratie en état d'urgence (2022) a
 nd De Haute Lutte. La révolution de l'avortement (2025).\n	\n	Antoine Vauche
 z is a Research Director at CNRS and Director of the European Centre for S
 ociology and Political Science (Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne/EHESS). His work
  examines the rise of European and neoliberal forms of governance\, and he
  is the author of The Neoliberal Republic (2023) and Brokering Europe (201
 5). \n
