SASE – 2026 Conference in Bordeaux

Sciences Po Bordeaux (France) | 1 – 3 July 2026

Fighting Divisions: Conflict and Power in a Post-Globalisation Order

SASE 2026 will explore how conflict and power operate in this changing environment. Are we witnessing the end of the globalisation era? What role does the state still play? What are the prospects for regional and transnational cooperation? How are trade, finance, and global value chains adapting? In employment relations, what types of conflict are surfacing, and which forms of power are being mobilised by workers and employers? Are institutions still capable of mediating these tensions? How do these dynamics differ between the Global North and the Global South?

The SASE community brings together diverse disciplines and methods, making it uniquely positioned to investigate these questions. The 2026 Annual Meeting in Bordeaux will offer a space to advance understanding of the forces shaping national and global systems today.
