课程简介

课程名称:欧洲公民身份的发展、范围与挑战 课程概述:在欧盟内,所有公民除了拥有国家公民身份外,还被授予了欧洲公民身份。这种超国界和跨国界的公民身份提供了哪些权利和机会?双层公民身份对于个人、成员国和欧盟本身带来了哪些挑战和难题?本课程将探讨欧洲公民身份的发展、范围及其面临的挑战。 课程的三重目标是:探讨欧洲公民身份的发展、应用和当前挑战。这个目标通过三个模块进行分析。第一个模块关注欧洲公民身份的发展:超出国家的公民身份实质性权利是什么,哪些机构在其发展过程中发挥了关键作用?主要讨论个人自由流动、跨境福利和政治权利,特别是欧洲公民倡议。第二个模块聚焦于欧盟公民身份的应用:欧盟公民身份如何被实践?与美国联邦体系相比,欧盟公民身份是有限的还是广泛的?它是否仍然主要是针对从一个成员国移动到另一个成员国的人的权利,而不是针对留在原成员国的人的权利?最后,第三个模块探讨了在过去十年中,关于欧洲公民身份的规则和权利如何受到质疑和政治化。在这一部分中,我们还将研究通过英国脱欧所带来的公民身份去欧洲化现象。 本课程由Erasmus+资助,由4EU+大学联盟开发,该联盟由六所欧洲大学组成:查尔斯大学、海德堡大学、索邦大学、哥本哈根大学、米兰大学和华沙大学。 课程大纲: 1. 欧洲公民身份的发展与现状:尽管欧洲公民身份是1993年《马斯特里赫特条约》建立的,但其发展和理由可追溯到1958年的《罗马条约》,当时实施了工人的自由流动以及更有限的跨境福利权利。通过欧盟法院的作用,欧洲公民身份的实质性权利不断增长。此模块将探讨平等待遇、自由流动、跨境福利和政治权利等核心权利。 2. 欧盟公民身份的“流动者”与“留者”:该模块进一步探索欧洲公民身份的范围,并加入在实践中实施规则和权利时出现的限制。涉及养老金、医疗保健、家庭福利、青少年社会融入及跨欧盟边界的保护权利等问题。该模块旨在理解欧洲公民身份在实际中的背景及运行情况。 3. 欧洲公民身份的挑战:第三个模块专注于欧洲公民身份面临的挑战,将展示关于在国家边界之外使用公民身份概念的理论辩论的两个方面,同时探讨福利优先主义作为当前政治挑战对欧洲公民身份的影响,以及英国脱欧导致的公民身份去欧洲化的过程。 通过分析这些主题,课程将帮助学生更深入地理解欧洲公民身份的复杂性及其影响。

课程大纲

Name:The Development and Status of European Citizenship

Description:Although European citizenship was established with the Treaty of Maastricht, which entered into force in 1993, its development and reasoning originate back to the Treaty of Rome in 1958 with free movement for workers and the historically more limited right to cross-border welfare. Since its establishment, the substantive rights of European citizenship have grown, not least through the Court of Justice of the European Union as an important institutional entrepreneur. In this lecture, the development and current status of European Citizenship will be explored by discussing core rights such as equal treatment, free movement, cross-border welfare, and political rights in terms of the European Citizens’ Initiative.

Name:EU Citizenship for 'Movers' and 'Stayers'

Description:This second module further explores the scope of European citizenship, but adds the limits that materialize when rules and rights are applied in practice. We will look into pension, healthcare and family benefits, youth social integration and protection rights beyond the EU territory, as well as the challenges that might arise due to the inherent multilingualism and multiculturalism of the European Union. This module will seek answers to pertinent questions such as: Is European citizenship unequal in practice? Why is an issue, such as the exportability of family benefits, highly politicized in some member states? How do rights extend beyond the EU territory? What are the more recent developments of European citizenship and does that do away with the critique that European citizenship is a privilege for those on the move, but a rather hollow right for those who stay? Overall, this module aims to understand European Citizenship in context.

Name:Challenges to European Citizenship

Description:The third module turns to the challenges of European citizenship. We will present the two sides of the theoretical debate on whether it makes sense to use the concept of citizenship beyond the borders of the nation state. The theoretical critique will first be presented and then responded to. In addition, we will examine welfare chauvinism as a current political challenge to European citizenship. Finally, the lecture turns to de-Europeanisation of citizenship as a result of Brexit. While the process of de-Europeanisation takes away concrete rights for UK citizens in the Union and for EU citizens in the United Kingdom, the process of de-institutionalization also showcases the substantive scope of a key EU institution, matured through gradual steps of integration.

All citizens in the EU are granted a European Citizenship on top of their national citizenship. Which rights and opportunities does this supra- and transnational citizenship provide? And what are the challenges and dilemmas of the two-level citizenship – for individuals, for the member states and for the union? This course examines the development, the scope and the challenges of European Citizenship. The course has a threefold aim: to explore the development, application and current challenges of European citizenship. This aim is examined through three modules. The first module focuses on the development of European Citizenship: What are the substantive rights of citizenship beyond the state, and which institutions have been key to their development? Here, we focus on free movement for persons, cross-border welfare, and political rights – especially the European Citizens' Initiative. The second module focuses on the application of EU citizenship: How is EU citizenship practised? Is EU citizenship limited or extensive when compared to the US federal system, for example? Is it still foremost a right for those who move from member state to member state, but not for those who stay in their member state of origin? Finally, the third module examines the extent to which the rules and rights around European citizenship have been contested and politicized during the last decade. In this part of the course, we also look into the de-Europeanisation of citizenship through Brexit. The course is funded by Erasmus+ and developed by the 4EU+ University Alliance, consisting of six European Universities: Univerzita Karlova, Universität Heidelberg, Sorbonne Université, Københavns Universitet, Università degli studi di Milano, Uniwersytet Warszawski.
