Summary/Abstract: The EU ‘Presidency’ is a notion we encountered first-hand throughout the entire process leading up to Poland’s accession to the European Union. Its role grew during crucial moments of the negotiations and on the occasion of summits. Soon we noticed logos, ties and mottos of subsequent presidencies, and finally we were welcomed by the Irish Prime Minister when Ireland was presiding over the Union on 1 May 2004.
