- Abstract
This module examines the microeconomic foundations of European integration, from its historical origins to the policies shaping today’s EU. It explores how trade liberalization, competition policy and factor market integration have influenced economic development and market dynamics across member states. Key topics include tariff regulations, labor mobility, regional policy and the role of state aid and agriculture in integration. By studying these processes, students will gain a deeper understanding of how economic policies drive European integration and affect businesses, workers and consumers.
