The Territorial Dimension of EU Knowledge Policies (eBook, PDF)

Higher Education Institutions for Europe

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book expands our understanding of the so-far-overlooked territorial dimension of the EU's knowledge policies crossing policy area boundaries.

It examines how EU regional policy, endowed with substantial financial resources, influences the comparatively weakly endowed EU higher education policy. The analysis finds that (sub)national actors not only implement EU regional policy instruments but also actively shape EU policies. By showing this co-shaping transcends policy fields, the book provides new insights into the (feedback) effects of EU-funded cross-border cooperation. It shows that regionalization endeavours are political projects of regional and EU decision-makers, which remain exposed to Europeanization processes in the long term.

This book is of key interest to scholars and students of European policymaking, EU integration, EU regional policies, EU public policy courses and more broadly to geography/development, social policy, governance and education policies.
