The European Union has developed from a narrow organisation that sought the peaceful cooperation of certain industries into a supranational political system with executive, legislative and judicial institutions. Over the last three decades the process of European integration has made rapid progress withe the deepening of the Single Market, the creation of a currency union, successive rounds of enlargement . On the other hand, recent setbacks and crises (such as Covid-19, the War in Ukraine, the Eurozone crisis, the 'migratory crisis', Brexit and the grow euroscepticism) have rekindled debates concerning the legitimacy, speed and direction of the European project. The module explores the governance of policy areas in the EU to understand the current challenges within the EU project and the drivers of these crises.
