Аннотация

The course “EU Politics, Law and Institutions” provides comprehensive knowledge of the set-up and functioning of the European Union, its evolution as well as formal and informal ways of interaction between member states and institutions. In particular, it introduces main institutions and bodies of the EU, their structures and modes of operation; it examines the decision-making in the EU as well as ways of representing interests and influencing decision-making; it studies the judicial system of the EU; it analyses the documents, related to the functioning of various EU institutions and bodies. The course applies neoinstitutional theoretical approaches to the study of the EU institutions, bodies and decision-making procedures as well as makes use of legal analysis. As a result it creates a firm basis for further independent work of students with the EU's institutions, structures and decision-making processes.
