“…Storylines are always embedded in broader structures of discourse (Hajer, 1997), and storylines that become institutionalized shift these structures in ways that make them more amenable to the frames communicated by the storyline. Coman (2018), in her analysis of the 2013 structural funds reform, finds that changes in crisis perceptions also interacted with changing power relations between EU institutions and changes in the ideational structure of prevailing discourse (see also: Coman, 2017). Also drawing on the fast-versus slow-burning distinction, she argues that the Parliament was sidelined during the fast-burning years by a strong partnership between the Council and Commission, but as perceptions changed toward slower-burning crises, the Council in turn became sidelined by a growing partnership between the Parliament and the Commission.…”

“…The rules and politics of labor mobility are becoming increasingly contentious and important to the political economy of the European Union (EU). Where issues such as brain drain within the Single Market used to be taboo, European politicians have recently become bolder in drawing attention to the potential 'dark sides' of labor mobility (Coman, 2017). Brain drain reflects a tendency for human capital to agglomerate where it is already abundant 'in what appears as an international competition to attract global talent' (Beine, Docquier, & Rapoport, 2008).…”

How do crisis perceptions interrelate with the emergence and re-constitution of policy problems? By using a novel combination of interviews with a content and network analysis of hand-coded parliamentary questions, this article maps the emergence of brain drain as a policy problem at the level of the European Union and follows the evolution of the issue over the last four parliamentary periods (from 1999 to 2019). I identify a skills storyline (emphasizing reform of vocational and educational training to address skills mismatches) and a solidarity storyline (emphasizing worker conditions, rights, and wages) as the main contending narratives that define the contours of the debate. The article analyzes how each of these storylines interacted over time with changes in the perception of crisis urgency facing the European Union in ways that run counter to what we would expect. I explain this by examining the capacity of each storyline to problematize or deproblematize the movement of labor, as well as their institutionalization over time. The article contributes to the study of the political economy of labor mobility with an original case study from the EU's Single Market, and challenges conventional wisdom regarding the role of framing during times of crisis.

“…The new intergovernmentalism states that since the beginning of the 1990s decisions at the EU level are inluenced by the European/Council to the detriment of supranational institutions. It suggests that Member States have been increasingly inclined to solve collective problems by strengthening the power of intergovernmentalism, whereas the power of supranational institutions has been impaired (Fabbrini and Puetter 2016;Coman 2017;Bonjour et al 2018). The rise in power of Member States is relected in the attempts of the European Council to instruct the Commission and the Council to pursue particular policy initiatives, thereby monopolizing the agenda setting (Puetter 2015, p. 166).…”

“…Kategoria granicy stanowi jeden z politycznych fundamentów powojennych procesów integracyjnych w Europie, zarówno w wymiarze wewnętrznym, jak i zewnętrznym. Wymiar wewnętrzny dotyczył początkowo zasady nienaruszalności granic i poszanowania integralności terytorialnej państw, z czasem akcent przesunął się na procesy deborderyzacji (Jańczak, 2011), które próbując wcielić w życie mit "Europy bez granic" zmaterializowały się w zasadach i praktyce Układu z Schengen (Coman, 2017). Ciekawszym z punktu widzenia prowadzonej analizy jest jednak wymiar zewnętrzny.…”

Rozwój Unii Europejskiej powoduje zmiany w jej modelu instytucjonalnym. W kontekście działań zewnętrznych dotyczy to z jednej strony rozkładu kompetencji formalnych, z drugiej praktyki funkcjonowania instytucji unijnych, szczególnie w zakresie mechanizmów nieformalnych. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest analiza zaangażowania Rady Europejskiej w kreowanie działań zewnętrznych Unii Europejskiej. Pytania badawcze stawiane w analizie dotyczą źródeł i przejawów dynamiki instytucjonalnej Rady Europejskiej w zakresie działań zewnętrznych. Odpowiedź na nie udzielona została w oparciu o analizę zachowania Rady Europejskiej w odniesieniu do sposobu konstruowania granic projektu integracyjnego w kontekście relacji z partnerami zewnętrznymi. Metodologicznie tekst opiera się na analizie konkluzji posiedzeń Rady Europejskiej w latach 2011–2017.
