Existing research shows that a rhetoric backlash against regional organizations and their bureaucracies is central to contemporar...

My piece proposing a typology of populist regionalism has finally found a home!

Constitutionalism, federalism and the future of the post-Maastricht EU order Sergio Fabbrini and Ulrich Haltern each have provided bold accounts about the status of contemporary post-Maastricht European Union (EU) integration. They review the reasons for why the EU currentl...

Read my @jei-publication.bsky.social review article on two bold accounts of contemporary European integration by Sergio Fabbrini and Ulrich Haltern. The former calls for a federalist alternative for Europe, the latter remains cautious with regard to treaty reform.

Bluesky: @jei-publication.bsky.social

In our recent article in @jei-publication.bsky.social David Howarth and I analyse the ESM's role as backstop to the SRF. Our finding illustrates that the inclusion of the permanence of legal framework clause in the ESM's treaty reform has the potential to undermine QMV in banking union.

Morning Bluesky.

Canada is ditching plans to buy 88 F-35A fighter jets from the US because of Trump. The order was worth $19 billion.

Defence Minister Bill Blair says they’re now actively seeking replacements.

Vance knew what he was doing. The aim was to provoke. They succeeded. Likelihood of a ceasefire was already in the balance because Putin won't agree to one. Now they can blame the weaker party, which is what they want. Blame Ukraine and possibly Europe for the failure. Dark times
