ºÏ·¨²©²ÊÍøÕ¾s in the EU enlargement process: Strengthening capacities of accession country parliaments under the evolving enlargement methodology EN
Studie
Samenvatting :
This study explores the role and enhancement of parliamentary capacities in the European Union (EU) enlargement process, focusing on the EU’s evolving accession methodology and its emphasis on the ‘fundamentals’ approach. It examines the European Commission’s criteria for ‘functioning democratic institutions’ in accession countries and evaluates the effectiveness of support measures from EU institutions, Member States, and international organisations. Based on desk research, mapping, and over 90 expert and stakeholder interviews, the study analyses EU democracy support initiatives for parliaments in 10 enlargement countries, namely Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Türkiye, Ukraine, and Kosovo.
The study highlights best practices and identifies challenges that require increased attention from the European ºÏ·¨²©²ÊÍøÕ¾ and the core actors involved in parliamentary capacity-building. While past efforts by the European ºÏ·¨²©²ÊÍøÕ¾, Member States, and international organisations have strengthened parliaments in these countries, ongoing democratic backsliding calls for more coherent and concerted action. ºÏ·¨²©²ÊÍøÕ¾ and its Democracy Support and Election Coordination Group (DEG) play a crucial role in addressing these challenges.
