Dr Paul Copeland

Paul

Senior Lecturer in Public Policy / School of Politics and International Relations

Profile

My research focuses on the political constellations surrounding EU social policy and the effectiveness of current governance tools within Social Europe. My work is strongly interdisciplinary and attempts to analyse the process of European integration surrounding Social Europe by engaging with the approaches and methods found within the broader school of the Social Sciences and Law.
