    Palgrave Studies in European Union Politics ~ The Palgrave Handbook of EU Crises
    The chapter recapitulates the basic assumptions and propositions of liberal intergovernmentalism on national preferences, intergovernmental bargaining, and the establishment of European institutions and applies them to the special context of integration crises. It then reviews how liberal-intergovernmentalist analyses explain the three major recent crises of the EU: the Euro, Schengen, and Brexit crises. The chapter argues that liberal intergovernmentalism offers only a partial account of state crisis preferences. Whereas it accounts convincingly for the variation of national interests in the Euro and Schengen crises, this is not the case in the Brexit crisis. The biggest deficit of liberal intergovernmentalism is its failure to theorize a feedback mechanism of integration that could account for the emergence of integration crises and their outcomes as consequences of earlier integration decisions.

  • Europeanization beyond Europe
    Item type: Journal Article

    Living Reviews in European Governance
    This article reviews the literature on Europeanization beyond the group of EU member and (potential) candidate countries. It uses the analysis of Europeanization in applicant states as a theoretical starting point to ask if, how and under which conditions we can expect domestic effects of European integration beyond Europe. Focusing on Europeanization effects in the areas of regionalism, democracy and human rights, and on the literature on the European Neighborhood Policy in particular, the article collects findings on the strategies and instruments as well as the impact and effectiveness of the EU. The general conclusion to be drawn from the theoretical and empirical literature reviewed is one of low consistency and impact.

  • Rebordering Europe: external boundaries and integration in the European Union
    Item type: Journal Article
    Schimmelfennig, Frank (2021)
    Journal of European Public Policy
    The crises of the European Union and the geopolitical shifts in its international environment have generated a backlash against the post-Cold War ‘debordering’ of European integration. Whereas integration theories focus almost exclusively on the EU’s internal boundaries and developments, this framework paper conceptualizes and theorizes integration as a process of internal debordering and external rebordering. It sketches the history of European integration in a bordering perspective and proposes general assumptions about the EU’s bordering process. Accordingly, rebordering pressures result from widening boundary gaps at the EU’s external borders, exogenous shocks to cross-border transactions, growing community deficits of debordering, and their politicization. Whether external rebordering succeeds and how it interacts with internal boundary formation, depends on EU-level boundary negotiations and the relative costs and benefits of external vs. internal rebordering.

  • Light at the End of the Tunnel? Eurozone Bailouts and Satisfaction with Democracy
    Item type: Book Chapter
    Schimmelfennig, Frank; Schraff, Dominik (2020)
    The European Social Model under Pressure? Liber Amicorum in Honour of Klaus Armingeon
    How did the Eurozone bailouts affect national democracies? Recent research, including by Klaus Armingeon and his colleagues, indicates strong citizen detachment from democracy due to the external constraints imposed by bailout programs on national autonomy. This chapter re-examines the detachment thesis with the help of the generalized synthetic control method. We confirm the strong negative effect of bailouts on satisfaction with democracy, but show that the effect diminishes substantially after a number of years.
