Evaluate the view that the EU has become a superpower, comparable to the United
States. (30)

Intro - superpower: a state with a dominant position in IR
EU formed in 1957 as the EEC

PARAGRAPH 1: ECONOMIC INFLUENCE
- EU gross domestic product is US $ 15,200,000 and a single market of 445 million
people with the majority members in the Euro Zone.
- Second on the list in global politics only very slightly behind of the US, so comparable
- Economic power is an important element because contributes to a superpower with
the EU acting as one economically
- ON THE OTHER HAND There are a number of long-established economic global
governance institutions committed to the development of global trade such as the
international monetary fund the World Bank and world trade organisation
- Based in the US - so they hold sovreignty
- These economic instutitons have been in place for an extended period and continue
to do so suggests that the global community is particularly concerned about
economic issues rather than others.
- MJ EU has become a superpower , as gdp figures are matching ip

PARAGRAPH 2: POLTICAL GOVERNANCE
- Member in its own right , member of WTO and G20 , particpant in a number of key
agreements and treaties such as the ICC
- Structural power important element of status - stand up to other states such as the
USA in trade and political disputes
- Is comparable because eu as a regional group is considered as important
- HOWEVER the eu has not become a superpower in comparable to the US due to the
permament 5 in the UN security council. Key decision maker in the IMF
- Eu doesnt reach this type of membership in any organisations
- A true superpower would be expected to be represented at the top rank of global
institutions and to hold primary structural power which rhe US Does
- MJ to be a superpower, it is important to have power politically economically military
and culturally

PARAGRAPH 3: CULTURAL
- Eu has the world's largest development aid project. Won Nobel prize, deployment on
soft power
- Increased significance in soft power - linked to a growth in status
- On the contrary US ranks at the top of soft power
- This is due to cultural influences through US movies, soft drinks, fast food, tech and
music
- When we compare us with the EU there is a lack of brand image which is portrayed
by the EU
- Clear EU has become a superpower comparable to the USA
