Europeanization – an Attempt to Systematize and Conceptualize Research Approaches

Summary/Abstract: This article attempts to systematize and delimit the process of Europeanization as a scientific term. The three main conceptual approaches to research on the process of Europeanization are discussed (namely bottom-up, top-down and the circular approach). The various research results on the phenomenon of Europeanization have been analyzed, which has resulted in highlighting four main research approaches (the polyvalent approach, casual approach, process approach and effect approach). The dimensions in which the Europeanization processes occur are also indicated by highlighting and analyzing the ten main dimensions, both economic and non-economic processes, of the Europeanization. It also undertakes a contextual analysis of Europeanization in relation to the processes of globalization and the internationalization of world economy.
