Agurre Lehendakariri buruzko Nazioarteko Kongresua ekainaren 9an, osteguna, garatuko da New Yorkeko bere zatian, Columbia Unibertsitateko Teachers College-n (Irakaskuntza Fakultatea). Programak Jose Antonio Agirre lehendakariak (1904-1960) utzitako ondarea, lehenengo euskal presidenteak egindako gogoeta, Europa eta mundu mailako dimentsioa duena aztertuko du, baita bere harreman pertsonal eta instituzionalak eta bere sinesmen politiko. sozial eta kulturalak.

Etxepare Euskal Institutuak, Universität Leipzig-ek eta William A. Douglass Center for Basque Studies at the University of Nevada guneak elkarlanean antolatu zuten ekainaren 1ean, burutu zen The International Legacy of Lehendakari Jose A. Agirre’s Government kongresu akademikoa honen aurreneko fasea, lehen Lehendakariaren ondarea modu osatuan aztertzea xede. Agirre Lehendakaria Center-ek, Mikel Laboa Katedrak (UPV-EHU) eta MHLI Ikerketa taldeak (UPV-EHU) ere babestu dute programa. Kongresua hirukoitza da berez: lehen geldialdi bat egin zuen martxoan University of Nevada, Renon; ondoren jarraipena izan zuen Humboldt Universität zu Berlin-en, eta ekainaren 9an amaituko da, New Yorkeko Columbia University-n. 

The Agirre Congress will be held this Thursday, June 9, at the Teachers College of Columbia University. The program is an integrative approach to José Antonio Agirre's (1904-1960) legacy, a modern reflection on the European and universal dimensions of the first democratically legitimized president of the Basque Country, his personal and institutional relationships as well as his political, social, and cultural convictions.

2016 represents the 75th anniversary of Agirre's arrival in Germany during his long and hard exile. Taking this as a starting point, the academic congress will serve as grounds for analyzing the legacy of Agirre's Government in exile and its relation to the construction of a democratic Europe.

This event is co-organized by the Etxepare Basque Institute, Universität Leipzig, and the William A. Douglass Center for Basque Studies at the University of Nevada, Reno. It is also supported by Agirre Lehendakaria Center, Mikel Laboa Chair (Univ. of the Basque Country), and MHLI Research Group (Univ. of the Basque Country).
