John Hooper, the Southern Europe Editor of the Guardian and Italy Correspondent of the Economist, asks whether the euro crisis is really over -- and looks at some of the other issues arising in what Europeans till recently thought of as their playground.

This event will be hosted by Giovanna Dell'Orto, assistant professor at the University of Minnesota School of Journalism & Mass Communication. On September 26, 2013 her new book Reporting at the Southern Borders: Journalism and Public Debates on Immigration in the U.S. and the E.U. will be published and includes a chapter written by Hooper.

This event is co-sponsored by the European Studies Consortium and the Department of Spanish/Portuguese.
