Academic Year 2024/2025
This module is for graduate programmes in Politics and International Relations.

This course analyses the institutions, actors, and policy-making processes in the European Union (EU). How does the EU manage to cope with the heterogeneity of interests, ideas, actors, and policy problems? Can European governance be effective and democratic? The class develops theory-driven answers to these questions. In addition, it analyses important themes of EU research (including how the EU makes decisions, the effects of enlargement, the EU’s effects on public opinion and party competition, and the relationship between transparency and democracy to name but a few).
