Анотація: The goal of this course is to get aquatinted with the main approaches to EU public policy analysis and to offer students a framework to conduct their own research on the EU public policy. To realize the indicated goal, the course introduces major debates about Europe, the EU and Europeans; considers some of the questions connecting with the EU`s enlargement, integration and policy-making, analyzing 4 main theories (neo-functionalism, intergovernmentalism, rational choice theories (institutionalism) and constructivism), which are essential tools for analyzing a policy field. In the frame of the course the EU policy-making is approached from a policy cycle perspective (with its stages of agenda-setting, policy formulation, decision-making, implementation and evaluation). Particular attention is paid to governance (multilevel governance, new modes of governance, policy networks), Europeanization (downloading and uploading) and issues of legitimacy (democratic deficit). A number of policy domains are selected as case-studies. EU public policy provides conceptual and research tools for the critical analysis of public policy and a broad political and historical approach to European and International Studies. It centers on the policy process in the European Union. This course enables students to understand and critically analyze the way in which policies are made in the European Union and the implications thereof. Both formal and informal dimensions are covered. Emphasis is put on the unique character of policy-making in the EU, the diversity of the EU policies and issues of power and influence. The course does not go over all policy areas but reaches the framework and the tools required to analyze a policy area in depth.
