Comments

The European integration process has been marked by great leaps forward and some major setbacks but after all the European Union (EU) has emerged as a key political actor that affects the daily lives of nearly 500 million people. The lecture focuses on this ambiguous political system, its history and current state and it provides a thorough understanding of the EU by combining factual information and theoretical debates. It is structured into three parts: The introductory part provides an overview of the history of the EU as well as a discussion of the major theoretical approaches to explain European integration. The second part focuses on the current political system, i.e. the EU’s institutions, its decision-making processes and some policy fields. The final third part sheds light on the societal bases of the EU and the integration process. close
