Welcome to the Kolleg-Forschergruppe "The Transformative Power of Europe"!
The Kolleg-Forschergruppe (KFG) “The Transformative Power of Europe” examines the role of the EU as promoter and recipient of ideas, analyzing the mechanisms and effects of internal and external diffusion processes in three research areas:
• Identity and the Public Sphere
• Compliance, Conditionality and beyond
• Comparative Regionalism and Europe’s External Relations
We bring together research on European affairs in the Berlin-Brandenburg region and institutionalize the cooperation with other universities and research institutions. A centrepiece of the KFG is the invitation of national and international guest scholars working on the diffusion of ideas as well as the promotion of junior researchers through (post) doc fellowships.
