Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Politik - Sonstige Themen, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Earlier studies about Europeanization were based on bottom-up approach. These studies were all about Europeanization as a process itself. Recently scholars are making attempt to adopt another method i. e. top-down method. I think one can understand Europeanization better with top-down perspective. In this work my discussion and opinions are based on top-down method. Europeanization is not same as European Integration. However there are lots of similarities between them. Various emerging images of Europeanization are described before I proceed to discuss impact of Europeanization on economic policies of member states. In order to provide a systematic account of impact of Europeanization on economic policies of member states, my work focuses on responses in three countries namely France, Germany and Britain. This work explores mechanics of adjustment in several economic areas such as monetary policy, financial services, telecommunications, electricity, transport and the environment. In concluding part an attempt is made to analyze and describe various patterns that emerge from impact of Europeanization on Economic Policies of member countries.
