with Alberto Alemanno, J. Monnet Professor, HEC Paris
Author of several books on the topic, in particular “Governing Disasters:
The Challenges of Emergency Risk Regulation” in 2011, A. Alemanno discusses the current health emergency as the latest transnational hazard where he believes the EU should have stronger powers. As an academic who engages with civil society, he set up The Good Lobby and promotes citizen lobbying to rethink representative democracy in the national and transnational space etc. His final words are on multilingualism and the translators at the citizen’s service.
