Reasons to study European Integration:
European integration is the process of industrial, political, legal, economic, social and
cultural integration of states wholly or partially in Europe. European integration has primarily
come about through the European Union and its policies.
= THE critical historical phenomenon of postwar Europe
1) European integration is a peace project: the search for something different after the
wars. It’s important to understand where we come from and to definitely not forget
what has happened (to learn from our mistakes)
6: symbolizes the Euro: European Central Bank (ECB headquarters in Frankfurt) (Euro-crisis)
7: Little Syrian refugee drowned (refugee crisis)
8: Ukraine: tanks driving through Europe (2014)
Ukraine VS Russia (over Crimea)
2014: very first point in time where borders were re-drawn on the European map bc
of military reasons)
9: Climate change over the years: 1880 to 2010
6-9: all very big problems for European countries
2) European-level policy-making means having to deal with big problems (it’s not just
technocracy)
Technocracy is a system of governance where decision-makers are selected on the basis
of technological knowledge. Scientists, engineers, technologists, or experts in any field, would
compose the governing body, instead of elected representatives.
