UNU/CRIS E-Occasional Papers O-2003/5 Is There a Comparative
UNU/CRIS e-Occasional Papers O-2003/5 Is There a Comparative Perspective between the European Union and NAFTA? Alejandro Chanona* * Director of the Center Of European Studies, National University of Mexico, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences ([email protected]) Is There a Comparative Perspective between the European Union and NAFTA? Introduction In 1991, a Conference was held in London regarding the launching of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). A member of the audience asked the speaker if he considered whether there was any chance for the NAFTA to be like the European Community; the answer was negative. The NAFTA was seen since its beginning as a simple Free Trade Agreement, maybe similar to an EFTA, rather than as a potential community. Time has proven that the respectable scholar was wrong; however, we cannot blame him for thinking like that. On the contrary, it was pretty ambitious to consider that NAFTA could take a step beyond what a FTA involves, theoretically speaking. There are currently several expectations around NAFTA that clearly foresee something beyond a simple FTA. Moreover, there are several analytical studies of a comparative nature, with the EU as the standard of comparison, that raise doubt over the idea of a North American Community1. If we agree that the NAFTA is a region in the making and its objectives tend to be overtaken by the dynamics of the region, we are in business. North America has become a real region for security reasons, for economic advantages and for political interests. The point is whether the NAFTA represents a distinctive model or its evolution reveals common features with the European experience.

"Democratic Deficit": Reassessing Legitimacy in the European Union
JCMS 2002 Volume 40. Number 4. pp. 603–24 In Defence of the ‘Democratic Deficit’: Reassessing Legitimacy in the European Union* ANDREW MORAVCSIK Harvard University Abstract Concern about the EU’s ‘democratic deficit’ is misplaced. Judged against existing advanced industrial democracies, rather than an ideal plebiscitary or parliamentary democracy, the EU is legitimate. Its institutions are tightly constrained by constitu- tional checks and balances: narrow mandates, fiscal limits, super-majoritarian and concurrent voting requirements and separation of powers. The EU's appearance of exceptional insulation reflects the subset of functions it performs – central banking, constitutional adjudication, civil prosecution, economic diplomacy and technical administration. These are matters of low electoral salience commonly delegated in national systems, for normatively justifiable reasons. On balance, the EU redresses rather than creates biases in political representation, deliberation and output. Introduction Is the European Union democratically legitimate? It is an appropriate mo- ment to pose this question. The last decade has witnessed the emergence of a stable institutional equilibrium – let us call it the ‘European Constitutional Settlement’ – that serves as a de facto constitution for Europe. The Treaties of Amsterdam and Nice failed to alter its structure significantly. Deliberations now underway, despite being turbo-charged with constitutional rhetoric, are unlikely to achieve much more. The most ambitious proposals still under se- rious

On Systemic Paradigms and Domestic Politics on Systemic Kevin Narizny Paradigms and Domestic Politics a Critique of the Newest Realism
On Systemic Paradigms and Domestic Politics On Systemic Kevin Narizny Paradigms and Domestic Politics A Critique of the Newest Realism The late 1990s was a fertile time for new thinking about how to incorporate domestic politics into international relations theory. First, in “Taking Preferences Seriously,” Andrew Moravcsik formulated a new paradigm to integrate diverse strands of existing scholarship on the topic.1 The result, which he called “liberalism,” made so- cietal preferences the analytic foundation of state behavior. Then, in “Neo- classical Realism and Theories of Foreign Policy,” Gideon Rose argued that several recently published books had successfully synthesized structural real- ism with ªne-grained insights about the domestic factors that mediate sys- temic pressures.2 Rose dubbed this research program “neoclassical realism” and championed it as an alternative to established theories both within and outside the realist paradigm. In short, both Moravcsik and Rose sought to draw new conceptual boundaries for the study of international relations. Thus far, the ªeld’s response to these two works has been quite different. Most scholars have accepted Moravcsik’s characterization of liberalism as a paradigmatic alternative to realism, but few have described their own work as liberal, even when it qualiªes as such. Meanwhile, neoclassical realism has generated considerable enthusiasm. Rose has not developed it further, but others have written theoretical essays that expand on its logic. Even more im- portant, numerous individuals have identiªed their empirical research with it. As of 2017, more than forty published works have used the term “neoclassical realism” or “neoclassical realist” in their title, and countless others have aligned themselves with it.

The European Constitutional Compromise and the Neofunctionalist Legacy Andrew Moravcsik1
Journal of European Public Policy 12:2 April 2005: 349–386 The European Constitutional Compromise and the neofunctionalist legacy Andrew Moravcsik1 ABSTRACT Neofunctionalism, a framework rather than a theory, has long played an important role in EU scholarship. Yet initial versions were overly comprehensive, incompletely specified and, as a result, non-falsifiable. Once concrete claims about the history of the EU are specified more precisely, they tend to be invalid: national preferences rarely result from unintended spillover, supranational entrepreneurs are rarely decisive – findings often disguised by poor theoretical specification and selection bias in EU scholarship. For the study of the EU today, the most important weakness of neofunctionalism is that its focus on ‘ever closer union’ obscures the emergence over the past decade of a stable constitutional equilibrium – a European Constitutional Compromise. This compromise is unlikely to be undermined by sub- stantive, institutional, or ideological developments over the medium term – because current constitutional arrangements are substantively effective, institutionally pro- tected, and democratically legitimate. The EU has reached constitutional maturity. KEY WORDS Compromise; constitution; democratic; legitimate; stable. Over the past half-century the European Union (EU) has evolved until its pol- icies and institutions are of a scope and significance without parallel among international organizations. Within Europe, tariffs, quotas, and most customs barriers have been all but eliminated. In regulatory areas such as environmental policy, competition, agricultural and industrial standardization policy, the EU is a dominant regional and global force. Similarly the EU is a bone fide superpower in the area of global trade. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has established the supremacy of EU law, the right of individuals to file suits, and constitutional review for consistency with the Treaty of Rome, which is binding through the near-uniform acceptance of its decisions by domestic courts.

The Relevance of Neofunctionalism in Explaining European Integration in Its Origins and Today
DOI: 10.2478/v10241-012-0030-6 Magdalena Godowska*1 The relevance of neofunctionalism in explaining European integration in its origins and today ABSTRACT The aim of this essay is to try to answer the question about the relevance of neofunctionalism in explaining the European reality by taking into consid- eration some of the strengths and weaknesses of the neofunctionalism theory. The hypothesis is that in spite of the wave of criticism, neofunctionalism is still worth considering, especially in order to explain speciﬁ c aspects of the integra- tion processes. The analysis is based on the examination of main features of the revised neofunctionalism theory, taking into account main critics of the original formulations – both ‘internal critiques’ developed by E.B. Hass, and ‘external critiques’ formulated by its opponents. The aim of this essay is to prove the relevance of this theory in explaining European integration by providing the reader with the examples of how to apply neofunctionalist framework in the area of competition policy and visa, asylum and immigration policy. KEYWORDS: neofunctionalism, European integration, competition policy, visa, asylum and immigration policy, spillover, supranational * Correspondence regarding the paper should be sent to: Magdalena Godo- wska, Institute of European Studies Jagiellonian University, Ul. Jodłowa 13, 30-252 Krakow, e-mail: [email protected] 146 MAGDALENA GODOWSKA INTRODUCTION “No theory of regional integration has been as misunderstood, caricatured, pilloried, proven wrong, and rejected as often as neo- functionalism” – claims Philippe C. Schmitter (Schmitter, 2004, p. 46). He then poses himself a question about the reasonableness of reviewing neofunctionalism and its relevance in explaining the European reality instead of celebrating its demise (Schmitter, 2004).
