Upon completing the course, students will understand the specifics of the UK’s historical and contemporary attitudes towards, and involvement in, the European integration process, and the salience of „Europe“ as a domestic political issue in the UK. They will understand how and why the idea of leaving the EU progressively gained traction, and they will be able to analyse and explain both the result of the 2016 referendum, and the difficulties in the subsequent Brexit negotiations. |
