“…At the time it was predominantly a loose, intergovernmental cooperation mechanism to coordinate foreign political decisions in a wider international environment. Rummel (1982, 168) described the EPC as “less a means for the Europeans to transform the structure of international relations fundamentally and more a method for adaptation to given structural circumstances”. As early as 1976, in consideration of the Tindemans 3 report, the then nine foreign ministers of the EC noted that “EPC must ultimately lead to a common foreign policy” (CVCE 2011b).…”

“…The EPC, more specifically, was also based on such thought.

This would then allow for those problems to be dealt with in a ‘civilianized’ or ‘domesticated’ way and thus increase political stability in the then “ ‘new’ democracies of Southern Europe”.…”

Mainstream academic accounts tend to reduce Europeanization to the processes of domestic adaptation to the project of regional integration epitomized by the European Union. We take a look into the history of this current conceptualization and critically examine the foundations on which such an elitist and parsimonious idea of Europeanization has been built. To attend to the myriad faces of Europeanization as a geopolitical discourse and practice, we argue for a pluralist conduct of inquiry into the manifold power relations in Europe. We thereby call for a reflexive approach which would allow for a more encompassing and contextualized understanding of the sociospatial dimensions of these intricate processes and would address many silences in the multifaceted geographies of Europeanization.
