Faglig innhold

Is Norway’s relationship with the EU unique? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this country’s relationship with the EU compared to alternative forms of association? Drawing on theories of European integration and international relations, the course offers a critical examination of Norway’s adaptation to the EU; be this adaptation interest-driven, rule-driven or norms driven. Throughout, specific empirical cases of difficult political issues and case law are set up against prior Norwegian expectations or positions. Furthermore, drawing on models of democracy, the course undertakes a critical assessment of the democratic implications arising in the association. Finally, in pursuing the above ends, and in addressing the above questions, the course places Norway’s association with the EU within a broader comparative perspective, by systematically contrasting this association with different models pursued by other European countries vis-à-vis the EU.
