-
Outside of the social sciences, it commonly refers to the growth of a European continental identity or polity over and above national identities and polities on the continent.
-
Europeanization may also refer to the process through which EU political and economic dynamics become part of the organisational logic of national politics and policy-making.
-
The process in which a subject (be it a culture, a language, a city or a nation) adopts a number of European features.
