Neofunctionalism vs Liberal Intergovernmentalism

Více o knize

The paper examines Neofunctionalism and Liberal Intergovernmentalism as key theories in European Integration, highlighting their main assumptions, similarities, and differences. It critiques both approaches for their shortcomings, referencing Thomas Risse's insights on their inability to address unique EU features. The analysis suggests that instead of relying on a single overarching theory, European Integration Theory should embrace a diverse array of theoretical frameworks, allowing for a more flexible and comprehensive understanding of integration processes.
