• Course : Rethinking the European Union
Description:
Rethinking the European Union takes an in-depth look at the state of the European Union in the 2010s, in the wake of the Eurozone crisis. Following an overview of the origins of the current crisis, this module aims to discuss its consequences and broad effects on the European Union critically. It characterises the European Union as a polity-in-the-making, investigating how far integration has advanced in a number of areas. In the light of the current crisis, it discusses the challenges to the traditional pillars of EU integration – identity, legitimacy and solidarity – in turn questioning the sustainability of the present model of regional integration.
• Course: From conflict prevention to consequence management of future Climate change crises.
Description:
This course will be structured by a series of sessions dealing with a great variety of themes which present the instruments used by the EU as a civilian power. The first sessions will be organised around the issues of conflict prevention and conflict mediation (the Balkans, Africa and the Middle East), looking at the emergence of State, non-state and transnational actors and entities from a historical perspective (starting after the end of the Cold War). One session will mainly analyse the complex issue of civil-military relations at the European level.
The second part of the course (4 hours) will allow students to take part in a "Model Congress" simulation based on a scenario dealing with the management capabilities of the EU facing a complex climate change crisis involving the civil as well as military actors and institutions presented during the first part of the course.
• Course : The EU between stability and solidarity
Description:
The aim of this course is to present academic workings on the European public sphere, the European Union’s legitimacy crisis, Eurozone crisis, transnational solidarity and the potential narrative turn in EU discourse adapted to the current challenges the EU faces.
• Course: Cooperation and Competition in the E.U. Questioning the single market and fiscal federalism.
Description:
Abstract: "The E.U. has been built with the objective to set up a single market and to strengthen the ties between the member states. Although the history of its institutions provides a unique example of cooperation between sovereign states, competition constitutes the DNA of the relationships of the economic agents in this area. This conjunction of competition and cooperation within the EU questions the relevance of federalism in this integrated economic territory. The international tax system provides an interesting field for studying this dialectic."
• Course : The EU migration and asylum policies
Description:
The lecture discusses the size, features, types and trends of migration in Europe, from post-war immigration patterns to Western Europe, to “new” immigration trends in Southern Europe and to the challenges of immigration for Central and Eastern European Countries. It covers the development of EU competences over time in the two fields of migration and asylum. The lectures also provide an analysis of the processes of spillover and communitarisation of the Schengen and Dublin systems, and the recent developments in EU immigration policy. Furthermore, we will discuss the Europeanisation of member states’ policies in the field of migration and asylum, and the relationship between the EU migration & asylum policies and the EU enlargement process. It discusses the agencification process and the creation of Frontex and EASO.
The course discusses the linkages between the EU migration & asylum policy and its external relations. It analyses the EU “comprehensive approach” to migration, and the role of the European Neighbourhood Policy, including Mobility Partnerships, as well as of the EU trade and development policies, and the role of the EU within the system of global governance of migration. And finally, the 2014-2015 crisis and the EU Migration & asylum policy at a crossroad
Course: What do we know about the values of the Europeans today?
Description:
The European Union is a very complex political structure unifying a large range of cultures, from the North to the South, from the West to the East. Few citizens are sharing exclusively a European identity, even though European citizens enjoy largely the benefits of the Union (common currency, freedom of movement, peace…). The diversity of such a large union justifies the various studies held on social and political values of the European citizens. What do we learn from those studies? Is it possible to synthesize this information and to draw a specific knowledge?
The course offering is tentative and subject to change.
The EU a time of decision: Crisis, exit, identity, migration… EU monetary, economic and social questions can no longer be denied, the migrant crisis leads to a (re)consideration of European identity and values. Furthermore, the issue of climate change en
