Issues include the means in which partners act together to support multilateral institutions (e.g., the International Criminal Court) and to promote global governance (e.g., through institutions such as the UN, ICC, OSCE) and the ways in which the EU and Canada can enhance policy effectiveness through joint actions and their partnership in crisis management, conflict prevention and human security. ERN members also examine how the partners might address challenges facing Europe and Canada in dealing with those areas of the former Soviet Union outside of the EU, including relations with Russia, countries included in the Eastern Partnership, and conflict zones in Central Asia and the Caucasus. Throughout, the aim is consider not only the policy outputs but analysis of the ways in which the EU and Canada might more effectively speak with a &#8220;common voice&#8221; in international affairs, thus setting an important example for third countries to follow and influencing debate on the global stage.<\/p>\n<p>The node works in cooperation with Carleton&#8217;s Centre for Security and Defense Studies (CSDS) of the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs in cosponsoring events and in seeking research synergies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Coordinator (s):<\/strong><br \/>\nProf. David Long, CES and Norman Paterson School of International Affairs<br \/>\nProf. Joan DeBardeleben, Institute of European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Members:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Prof. Franz Kernic, CES and Institute for Strategy and Security Policy<br \/>\nProf. Costanza Musu, University of Ottawa<br \/>\nProf. David Mendeloff, Normal Paterson School of International Affairs<br \/>\nProf. Charles Pentland, Queen&#8217;s University<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key European Partners:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Prof. Franz Kernic (Swedish National Defense College, Stockholm, Sweden)<br \/>\nProf. Sven Biscop (Royal Institute for International Relations, Ghent University, Belgium).<\/p>\n<p>Members of the ERN work with a variety of other partners in Europe as well.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"ERN2\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-right: -20px; margin-left: -20px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px;\" src=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/ces\/wp-content\/uploads\/EUpolitics.jpg\" alt=\"Citizenship and Integration\" width=\"1600\" height=\"578\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/c2hHhw\" target=\"_blank\">Photo <\/a>by William Murphy | <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a> | Cropped from original<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>ERN 2: Citizenship and Social Integration: Between National and Transnational Society<\/h3>\n<p><em><a href=\"#\">(Return to top)<\/a><\/em><br \/>\nThis Research Node focuses on policies, practices and discourses that shape forms and conceptions of political participation, social inclusion\/exclusion, and citizenship in the European Union and its Member States. It analyzes public policies, but also political practices and discourses relevant to processes of social integration in Europe&#8217;s multi-level system, and maps new conceptions of membership and territoriality that emerge from them. It concentrates on two subthemes: first, it examines political participation at multiple levels and sites within the EU, focusing on electoral turnout and participation in political parties and civil society organizations, as well as on the integration of migrants and\/or other &#8220;marginalized&#8221; groups into labor markets, education and social security systems, urban neighborhoods, etc.; secondly, it inquires how such policies and practices, as well as the ensuing demands and claims expressed by political actors, contribute to &#8211; or are shaped by &#8211; the discursive construction of new concepts and spaces of transnational citizenship.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Coordinator(s):<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Prof. Achim Hurrelmann, Department of Political Science<br \/>\nProf. Martin Geiger,\u00a0Department of Political Science and\u00a0Institute of European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies (EURUS)<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Members:<\/strong><br \/>\nProf. James Casteel, Institute of European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies (EURUS)<br \/>\nProf. William Cross, Department of Political Science<br \/>\nProf. Robert Gould, School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies<br \/>\nProf. Melissa Haussman, Department of Political Science<br \/>\nProf. Raffaele Iacovino, Department of Political Science<br \/>\nProf. Karim H.

This Research Node focuses on the comparative study of Canada\/EU innovation in environmental policy, organized around three core themes. These are innovation in: a) governance, particularly multi-level governance for the environment; b) responses to climate change; c) policy instruments, such as negotiated agreements and market based measures. The purpose of the work is to build closer collaboration between researchers on environmental policy in Canada and the European Union, to strengthen comparative understanding of environmental policy innovation in developed states, and to encourage cross-national learning about innovative approaches in this policy field.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Coordinator:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Prof. Inger Weibust, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs (NPSIA)<\/p>\n<p><strong>ERN Members:<\/strong><br \/>\nProf. Peter Andree, Department of Political Science<br \/>\nProf. Eda Kranakis, University of Ottawa, Department of History<br \/>\nProf. James Meadowcroft, School of Public Policy and Administration<br \/>\nProf. Matthew Paterson, University of Ottawa<br \/>\nProf. Stefan Schott, School of Public Policy and Administration<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary European Partner:<\/strong><br \/>\nEnvironmental Policy Research Centre, Free University of Berlin (Miranda Schreurs)<\/p>\n<p>Members of the ERN work with a variety of other partners in Europe as well.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"ERN4\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-right: -20px; margin-left: -20px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px;\" src=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/ces\/wp-content\/uploads\/EUtrade.jpg\" alt=\"Political Economy of European Integration\" width=\"1600\" height=\"578\" \/><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/mKBhyZ\" target=\"_blank\">Photo<\/a> by Train Photos | <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a> | Cropped from original<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>ERN 4: The Political Economy of European Integration: Regional and Economic Dimensions<\/h3>\n<p><em><a href=\"#\">(Return to top)<\/a><\/em><br \/>\nThis research node focuses on implications of EU accession and EU policies for regional equalization both between member states and within member states, with particular attention to the new member states of Central and Eastern Europe and a comparative Canadian perspective.
