Domestic opportunity structures and political actors' positions are widely regarded as the most important explanatory factors for EU politicisation. The euro crisis, however, has revealed cleavages across rather than within countries, suggesting structural factors as a potential explanation for politicisation. Based on the political economy literature on Europe's Economic and Monetary Union, this contribution develops a structural approach to politicisation with respect to countries' power and variety of capitalism. Using a content and claims analysis of business papers in Germany, France, Austria and Ireland before and during the crisis, the findings reveal a differentiated pattern of politicisation. While an expansion of actors indicates that EMU became more politicised during the crisis, polarisation remained low within countries. Countries' variety of capitalism and their perceived power in the EU largely explain the substance and objects of politicisation. The findings encourage further research considering structural explanations for differentiated politicisation in less elite-centred settings of politicisation.

“…Europe 2020 does not provide answers on how to monitor mutual interactions between policies, for instance the social dimension of economic targets (Zeitlin, 2010). Dinan (2012) describes the confusion that stems from the recent EU level initiatives by observing that the EU uses the term 'economic governance' to refer to very different policy cycles ranging from fiscal federalism to less binding coordination of socio-economic policies. If this confusion also includes the type of coordination instruments to use for executing this 'economic governance', then the EU could potentially be entering domains of national sovereignty via the backdoor of economic governance (Bekker and Palinkas, 2012).…”

“…--and running the risk of potentially fraught ratification procedures. In the event, Britain's refusal to participate in the negotiations meant that the proposed pact would have to be concluded as an intergovernmental treaty among the other member states, outside the EU's own treaty framework (Dinan 2012).…”
