In 2003, the IWM organized its 10th international Summer School in Philosophy and Politics. The School, which took place in Cortona (Tuscany), was managed in cooperation with the following partner institutions: the Erasmus of Rotterdam Chair and the Collegium for Interdepartmental Studies (both at the University of Warsaw), the New Europe College (Bucharest), the Center for Theoretical Study and the Institute for Contemporary History (both in Prague), and the Society for Higher Learning (Bratislava). Following an open competition, approximately fifty graduate students from Eastern and Western Europe and from the USA were selected to participate.
