Course objectives
Economic Policy of the European Union (HOEU) This course familiarises students with philosophy, mechanisms and institutions of the common macroeconomic policy of the EU. Lectures combine theoretical premises with their practical implementation and thus enable the student to assume an analytical attitude to the individual measures and judge them critically. The course is classified into the topic areas according to economic and political fields: it gradually covers trade and customs policy, agricultural policy, structural policy, policy of economic competition, transportation policy, environmental policy and social policy. Special emphasis is placed on monetary policy, particularly on the conditions of functioning of Economic and Monetary Union, previous experience and its future perspectives. Throughout the course, the process of enlargement (i.e. the area of regional and cohesion policy) and reforms of EU institutions are explored. The course is organised in the form of lectures and seminars; the lectures offer a review of the appropriate topics and the subject matter is further analysed and discussed at the seminars. Students are asked to prepare brief, specialised seminar papers. Credit requirements: active participation in seminars, seminar paper defence.
