Seminar Summary

General objective

To give a synopsis of the first steps given at the LIEPP into the research programme “Opposing Regional Integration in Comparative Perspective (ORICOP): Understanding resistances to regional integration and their consequences in Europe and Latin America”

Specific objectives

  • To provide an overview of the main conceptual debates about Euroscepticism within the field of EU Studies, International Relations and Political Science, distinguishing between the Anglophone and Francophone contributions.
  • To critically examine the typologies developed on the European Union case (both Anglophone and Francophone conceptualizations) and assess to what extent they can be generalized to regional integration in Latin America.
  • To identify the main political actors expressing resistances to regional integration (in Europe and Latin America) and to what extent the factors explaining such resistances are similar.
