Course Title:
THE DECISION-MAKING PROCESS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION: AN INSIDER'S VIEW
Course Number:
DSPO 25A13
Course Description:
COURSE DESCRIPTION This class has an innovative approach to European institutions and politics. Unlike a theoretical university presentation, the class aims to provide students, regardless of whether they have extensive knowledge of the subject, with a concrete overview of the daily functioning of European institutions and true ratios of power between all the stakeholders involved. Using numerous enlightening examples, some of which are unknown by the general public and the media, the aim of the course is to challenge misconceptions and preconceived ideas about Europe and to help students form their own points of view. It may occasionally call upon external speakers to debate with students and share their experience. Session 1: Does the European Union's decision-making process distance Europe from citizens? Session 2: Who really presides over the European Union? Session 3: Does the European Council still serve a purpose? Session 4: Does the European Commission constitute Europe's Government?
