"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 newinsights into the (feedback) effects of EU-funded cross-border cooperation. It shows that regionalisation 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"-- Provided by publisher.

Recenzijas

Presenting a novel research agenda and rich empirical analysis at the cross-roads of EU regional policy and higher education policy, Alina Felder takes the reader into the laboratories of European integration. She finds circular Europeanization: EU policies provide incentives that trigger cooperation among regions. But over time, cooperation becomes a taken-for-granted way of doing things, which in turn feeds back and shapes EU knowledge policies. Thus, Europeanization is as much from the top as it is from below. A fascinating reading for political scientists and scholars of public policy in Europe.

Claudio M Radaelli, European University Institute, Italy

An important study in EU policy dynamic, providing an in-depth look into interaction between policy domains usually studied in isolation from each other. Felder developed a robust theoretical framework, whose relevance goes well beyond regional and higher education policy domains.

Martina Vukasovic, University of Bergen, Norway

A comprehensive and insightful analysis of cross-border cooperation in higher education, this book masterfully connects three decades of EU regional policy with academic collaboration initiatives from Interreg to European university associations. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners, it offers valuable perspectives on how EU funding has transformed regional integration and higher education across Europe.
