Is there a European people emerging? In this module we aim to investigate the political and economic European integration as a process of rising transnational social integration between the citizens from European Union member states. In the lecture, I will outline the major fields, theories, methods, and empirical evidence concerning European social integration from a macrosociological perspective. Besides others, transnational identity, solidarity, mobility, and social inequality are highlighted features.
The exam will be held in German or English (students are free to choose).
