Description

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 91, Liverpool John Moores University, course: Comparative EU Government, language: English, abstract: The present essay will explore the dynamic and much contested concept of Europeanisation of European politics with a particular focus on the implications in Germany and France. In general, Europeanisation refers to the interactions between the EU and the member states and other countries. However, more recently the concept of Europeanisation has been applied in different ways and to different areas. The concept has also evolved over time as authors have come to consider different approaches and even stretched the concept to incorporate other aspects, which may not have seem relevant at first glance. However, Europeanisation can be distinguished from other concepts, such as European integration or convergence, although it can be difficult to separate the effects of Europeanisation from other sources of change, such as globalisation.
