Centre for European Politics

Centre for European Politics is a cross-cutting research initiative at the Department of Political Science. The Centre researches in subjects such as EU’s political system and institutional development, EU’s relation to international politics, europeanization and implementation as well as individual states’ – including Denmark’s – relationship with the European Union.

The purpose of Centre for European Politics (CEP) is to strengthen the Department of Political Science and the University of Copenhagen in the international research field, to take educational initiatives and to make sure that the work of the Centre’s internationally acknowledged researchers is brought to public notice in an approachable form. The research output includes analyses of the national in the European, the European per se and Europe’s development in a global context.

CEP emphasizes co-operation with other researchers, both nationally and internationally, and attaches great weight to strengthening the research networks in Denmark and the rest of the world.

Research at the CEP focuses on four broad research areas: EU’s political system and institutional development, the external role of the EU, Europeanization, implementation and states’ – especially Denmark’s – relationship with the EU, and fundamental problems of political science in the understanding of Europe’s development and the European integration, which together constitutes the framework for the Centre’s cutting-edge research on the EU and Europe.
