The European Union - EUL202

In this subject students are introduced to the study of European Integration and its result, the European Union, through different disciplinary lenses. For example, the common European currency, the Euro, and the project of a Europe without boundaries (the Schengen area) are addressed not just in terms of history, economics and law but also in relation to their sociological implications for European identity and for member-states’ sovereignty. We will also examine the EU’s official rhetoric as a global player on the world stage (‘soft power Europe’) against its accomplishments to date, using an International Relations perspective.
