The European Union is an important actor when it comes to law-making. While this often appeears to be very abstract, it does impact our lifes as European citizens very much, also on the national level. In 2021, the European Commission opened a series of citizen-led debates, the Conference on the Future of Europe. These meetings, taking place in various formats, allowed cititzens from allover Europe to share their ideas and provide suggestions on how to improve their future in Europe.
This seminar will offer students the opportunity to investigate this process more closely, its results, achievements and implications for all inhabitants of European member states. Connecting them in a better was with EU institutions is crucial considering that European elections will take place in May 2024 and that Eurosceptical voices are rising in many European societies. At the end of the seminar, students will have fostered their background on theoretical perspectives to critically analyse Europeanisation, integration and multi-level governance, including institutional, feminist and sociological approaches.
