Individual US states engage in their own diplomatic efforts towards the EU - Illinois even has an office in Brussels - but they do so in different ways and for different reasons. This episode dives into this long-standing but under-researched practice.

This episode brings in Maria Helena Guimaraes (University of Minho) and Michelle Egan (American University) to discuss their article (co-authored with Sandrina Antunes), "Made in the USA? The paradiplomatic strategies of California and Illinois to the EU".
