In this module, students examine under which conditions collectively binding decisions are made in different policy areas, which kind of policy change these decisions can be linked to and how policy change can be explained. The specialization module V3 European Administration provides insights into structures, functions, and problems of transnational administrations, especially in a European context. In module MV2 of the MA Political Science – Governance and Participation, the Chair of Policy Research and Environmental Politics focuses on the actions of the state and the economy concerning globalization.
