Varieties of Europeanization in the Network Industries

Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 1,0, Zeppelin University Friedrichshafen (Department of Public Management & Governance), language: English, abstract: Questions of de- and re-regulation of network-based utilities are crucial for the creation of the European single market. Whereas a broad discourse concerning better regulation has been launched and developed over years in the European Union (EU), advanced by the gradually re-formulated Lisbon Strategy, different explanatory concepts of European integration and its effects on national economic regimes persist without cross-fertilizing one another. These thoughts are inspired by the apprehension that we will have to present an encompassing evaluation of the outcomes of the Lisbon Agenda as soon as 2010, while still lacking a differentiated scientific understanding of the foundations of this common economic and regulatory space which is now about to become the most dynamic, competitive and sustainable in the world.
