Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Focus of this seminar is the ongoing crisis of the EU. Past crises as well as differential effects on countries and/or policies are of interest.

Assessment and permitted materials

Course requirements include regular attendance and participation, several exercises (e.g. literature search on the internet and in library catalogues), the development of a research outline to be discussed in class, usually a presentation of the draft paper, and a research paper of approx. 15 pages (often collaborative work). Furthermore, students may be asked to attend relevant public events and provide summaries or discussion papers in which central arguments of required readings are critically discussed. Intensive work during the semester!

Students MUST attend the first session of the course. Otherwise, their places will be given to students from the waiting list (except if there is a certified health or other important reason).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Goal is an in-depth understanding of the process of EU integration and its crises.

Examination topics

The seminar is structured into three phases: the introductory phase first presents the general fundamentals. Additionally, exercises in fundamental skills of social scientific writing (literature search, citation) will be conducted. On the basis of this introduction, students choose their essay topics. In the second phase, students will be divided into groups according to their chosen topics and guided in developing their research design. The third phase consists of plenary sessions to discuss student presentations.
