Gil Thompson Julien Bois
Kommentar
The purpose of this seminar is to familiarize students with little or no knowledge of European integration to grasp the political dynamics behind the socio-institutional changes that affected the European Union after nearly seven decades since the signature of the Rome treaty on March 25th, 1957. By retracing the historical evolution of the constitutional mutations of the EU, the seminar will highlight the shift from an apolitical project based on the single market to a true Union for the people “united in diversity”. First, the lecturers propose to review the institutional developments resulting from the successive treaties (from Rome to Lisbon). Then it will shift to the major integration theories (neofunctionalism, intergovernmentalism, multi-level governance) and study their strengths and weaknesses. Overall, it will enable students to reflect upon the EU with greater information and contextualization, qualities they will develop themselves in the concluding session in the form of a debate about the legitimacy of the European Union as it stands today.
