Rearming Europe
The Ukraine war and uncertainty about the US security commitment have forced Europe to address its defence readiness. In response, the EU has launched its most ambitious effort yet to consolidate its defence industrial base and enhance collective readiness: the European Defence Industrial Strategy (EDIS) and European Defence Industry Programme (EDIP). However, member states have responded differently to these initiatives, resulting in intense int…
The challenge of implementing European Union environmental law in the new member states
This article examines the problematic implementation of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD) in the Czech Republic and Poland from the perspective of the scholarly debate on European Union (EU) and post-accession compliance, focusing on the competing ‘goodness of fit’ and administrative-legal approaches to explaining variations in compliance with EU rules. It finds that administrative shortcomings of various kinds are a major reason …
The Limits of Regionalization
What explains national variation in the implementation of EU Cohesion Policy, in particular when it comes to the role of regions in Structural Funds management? This is an important question because, as some scholars have claimed, Cohesion Policy has the potential to empower regions and promote regionalization in Europe. Particularly in the new CEE member states, where relations between central and subnational authorities often remain unsettled o…
The Implementation of EU Environmental Policy in the Czech Republic
This article examines the implementation of EU environmental policy in the Czech Republic, focusing on the transposition and application of three key directives. It argues that, while the Czech Republic has had difficulty complying with EU environmental law since accession, overall its performance in this area does not conform to pessimistic scenarios of post-accession compliance. A key positive factor affecting the implementation of EU environme…
Evaluating the Effects of the EU Common Agriculture Policy in a New Member State
This article examines the impact of the CAP on the Czech Republic. Specifically, it focuses on implementation of the CAP and its economic, social and political effects, as well as the domestic debate about CAP reform. It argues that CAP implementation has gone fairly smoothly and the economic and social effects of the CAP have been generally positive or at least neutral. It also argues that while the CAP has had only a minimal impact on domestic …
Regional Policy and Decentralization in the Czech Republic
EU accession has had an ambiguous impact on regionalization in the Czech Republic. While EU membership necessitated the creation of regional administrative structures to manage the Structural Funds, the role of new regional authorities was often undermined by the centralized nature of the accession process itself. Developments since accession have created a new dynamic in the debate over regional policy and regionalization in the Czech Republic, …
The Europeanization of Czech Politics
This article explores the Europeanization of Czech politics in the pre‐accession period, with a principal focus on the political parties and party system. It argues that Czech political parties and party politics became increasingly Europeanized with the increased integration of the Czech Republic into the EU. In turn, the parties have played a key role in the Europeanization of Czech politics. This role is evident in the outcome of the June 2003…
Germany and Central Europe
This paper re-examines post-cold war predictions of German hegemony in Central Europe. Focusing on the four ‘Visegrad’ states, it examines each of the three pillars of prospective German hegemony. It concludes that only in the economic pillar can Germany be perceived as dominant. German dominance in the political realm is limited by historical factors and by the supranational structures of the EU. German cultural influence or ‘soft power’ is unde…
Europe Unites
Decentralization in the Czech Republic
This study begins with an exploration of the external (European Union) and internal (Czech political parties) forces that shaped the creation of regional assemblies in the Czech Republic. The institutional and administrative requirements of EU regional policy served as a catalyst for the creation of Czech regional governments. Domestic struggles over decentralization, particularly among Czech political parties, are reflected in the number and bou…
EU Regional Policy and the Candidate States
As relatively poor countries, the candidate states from Central and Eastern Europe will be major recipients of structural funds assistance once they join the EU. This prospect raises important questions about the impact of regional policy on the territorial politics of candidate states. Chief among these is whether EU regional policy will promote the same trends towards political decentralisation and regionalism in the Central and Eastern Europe …
The EU as a Regional Actor
This article examines the impact of EU enlargement on regionalization in the Czech Republic. It asks whether pre–accession preparations for EU regional policy have promoted regionalization and governmental decentralization in the Czech Republic, a question prompted by the debate about EU regional policy and regionalization in the current Member States. After reviewing Czech preparations for EU regional policy and the administration of pre–accessi…

The Maastricht Treaty as High Politics
In December 1991, European Community leaders met in the Dutch town of Maastricht and gave their approval to the Treaty on European Union. At the time, the treaty-whose centerpiece was an agreement to achieve full monetary union by the end of the decade-was hailed as a monumental step in the direction of European economic and political unity. Within a matter of months, however, the Maastricht Treaty was in grave trouble; not only did it face growi…
