The Political Theory of European Integration
A junior scholar workshop
Political theorists have been quite slow to engage with European integration. Of course, there is the continuing debate on the EU’s democratic deficit, but notably it is more often used as a background for empirical political science than that it is thoroughly probed in theoretical terms. Legal scholarship on European integration has yielded a more coherent body of normative thinking
This workshop aims to contribute to a more systematic debate among theorists of European integration by assembling a selected number of scholars in the early stages of their career who have made their first notable interventions in the debate. They span the disciplines of political science, law and philosophy and come from different national backgrounds.
Senior discussants:
- Richard Bellamy (EUI/UCL)
- Ben Crum (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam)
Organisers:
- Jan Pieter Beetz (University of Exeter/University of Amsterdam)
