The argument on the qualitative change in the intensity of relations is developed by comparing the situation in Schengen-related matters before and after the conclusion of the Swiss Schengen Association Agreement. Although the regulatory boundary was not formally shifted prior to the conclusion of the Schengen Association Agreement, various forms of policy transfer led to a high degree of policy convergence. The organisational boundary was only “tentatively” shifted in the pre-Schengen era owing to the fact that Switzerland remained excluded from the key implementation networks (SIS, Dublin). The conclusion of a dynamic integration treaty in Schengen matters shifts the EU’s regulatory boundary towards Switzerland in an unprecedented manner, a process that has been accompanied by a multiplication of possibilities for organisational inclusion. The article concludes by critically reflecting on the limited exportability of this advanced form of “flexible integration”.

;Lavenex, SandraThis article analyses the modes of governance through which the EU seeks to ensure the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) countries’ participation in the realization of its internal security project. Although the EU, given the strong interdependence in these ‘soft security’ issues, has strong incentives to govern by conditionality in order to ensure the ENP countries’ compliance, efforts to transfer policies by such hierarchical means encounter serious limitations as a result of lack of supranational competence and insufficient incentives that the EU can offer third countries to compensate for adaptation costs. By comparing Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) issues with different degrees of communitarization and representing different constellations of interests in relations with ENP countries, we find that the EU increasingly focuses on the extension of internal transgovernmental networks as an alternative form of external governance. Although theoretically allowing for horizontal patterns of co-owned cooperation, the integrative potential of these networks is hampered by the lack of mutual trust and institutional incompatibilities in ENP countries. As a result, extended network governance becomes an attempt at unilateral policy-transfer by ‘softer’ means. - PublicationMétadonnées seulement
