Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. ‘Europeanisation’ of social policy - E.U. ‘single social policy areas’? - E.U. policies affect: - policy style (formulation and implementation); - general problem solving approach; - policy instruments employed; - policy standards set (based on E.U values and principles)

Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. Europeanisation of : - pressure groups - interest groups - epistemic communities and policy networks

Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. 4 processes of ‘Europeanisation’ of policy: ‘bottom-up’ (national state – E.U.) ‘top-down’ (E.U. – national state) ‘horizontal’ (State – State) ‘round-about’ (national state – E.U. – national state)

Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. ‘Europeanisation’ based on underlying E.U. principles and ‘core values’: - social progress; - the aim of high levels of employment; - social protection; - the aim of raising living standards and quality of life; - promotion of social cohesion and social justice

Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. ‘Europeanisation’ = overarching E.U. core values and principles, within which individual policies are shaped and formulated, and diversity and ‘mutual recognition’ acknowledged, particularly in implementation to meet policy aims

Contemporary Social Policy in the E.U. Europeanisation consists of 3 processes of: a) construction b) diffusion c) institutionalisation of formal and informal rules, procedures, policy paradigms, styles, ‘ways of doing things’ and shared beliefs and norms which are first defined and consolidated in the EU policy process and then incorporated in the logic of domestic (national and subnational) discourse, political structures and public policies.
