The Posen Research Forum
{tab About}
The Posen Research Forum is dedicated to the intellectual history of political and legal cultures in Europe and in Israel, with particular emphasis on the
Jewish-European millennium and its viable legacies for modern political thinking, and for positive Israeli-European dialogue.
The Posen Forum, launched in October 2003, offers a discussion setting and research support for scholars and students interested in various aspects of
Jewish-European and European-Israeli political and legal thought.
