Volledige vakbeschrijving
This module provides students with in-depth knowledge of central driving forces, turning points, and features in the history of European integration. It applies an interdisciplinary mix and combine approaches from history, international relations, and comparative politics and introduces students to working with primary sources. Thematically, the module focuses on some of the key moments of European integration history (such as the Hague summit of 1969) and combines this with more thematically organized sessions, e.g. focusing on actors in European integration history. It thus introduces students to the complexity of multi-perspective (and potentially multi-archival, multi-lingual) European integration history research and its relevance for understanding present-day and future challenges for the EU.Doelstellingen van dit vak
