Students are able to explain the functionality and differentiation of the political system of the EU. They discuss and answer questions illustrated by individual organs and institutions of internal and institutional decision-making processes and the characteristics of individual political fields.

The second part will be structured in a more interactive way, with students preparing, presenting and discussing the main policy crises challenging the entire European integration project: the Sovereign Debt crisis, the Schengen crisis, the Brexit and the Coronavirus crisis.
