The project has examined the consequences of the EU's intensified external actions for the power division within the EU. The conference will focus on the power shifts that occur when a policy is pursued externally rather than internally, triggered for example by a different involvement and influence of the EU institutions or by a changing interpretation of established organizational principles, such as subsidiarity and sincere cooperation.
Christina Eckes, Associate Professor and co-director of ACELG, will hold a public conference on 24 April 2015 to discuss the results of her NWO-sponsored research project' Outside-In. Tracing the Imprint of the European Union's External Actions on Its Constitutional Landscape'.
