EU policy and implementation

People have become more critical of EU policy and often seem to prefer local policy solutions in response to globalisation problems. How do you experience EU policy? Does it help? And if not, how can we change this? In this course, we learn how the European Union prepares and decides on policy, and how policy is transferred to member states and implemented by various authorities, including regional and local governments. We discuss the challenges of the European multi-level governance structure. We also focus on the main causes of policy failure or success. On this journey, we focus on actual policy and present the views of various experts: how easy is it to establish yourself in another EU-country? How do governments make sure that the air you breathe is clean? And who is responsible? You will be able to do research together in your own local setting. Research on implementation in which you can make comparisons between different countries or areas. If you live outside the EU, this is not a problem. We have developed assignments in such a way that you can do research in your area and compare your findings with others. This MOOC has been rated as one of the best MOOCs of 2017 and is currently in the Top 50 MOOCs of All Time of Class Central So, are you curious?

What people are saying

european union

The course gives a very complete and integral view of the different Union mechanisms and provides an excellent insight of the European Union administrative practices.

Besides from my point of view, all the work team and Professor are actively present encouraging and helping as the weeks advance and finally, I should add I found very constructive the interviews scope, calls to a reflexive review of the European Union.

For any EURO sceptic this course is an eye opener to the intricate workings of an unique institution the European Union is.

An extraordinary course in order to update and incorporate the necessary knowledge on European Union policy and how it is really implementing along the territory.

I recommend this course to anyone, in any jurisdiction, who needs to understand the decision-making process in the European Union.
