The European Union: a distinctive model of internationalization
The central argument in this article is that the process of institution-building, law-making, policy integration and market creation in the European Union (EU) has produced a European model of internationalization with distinctive characteristics. The article seeks to analyse the characteristics of the emerging European system by acknowledging the 'betweenness' of the EU. Scholars of integration have always been confronted and challenged by the 'betweenness' of the Union. The EU hovers between politics and diplomacy, between states and markets, and between government and governance.
