Full judicial recognition and accreditation by at least 2 of the joint partners from the joint consortium is a prerequisite

European Union Stubb,A.(2003) EU HOW DOES IT WORK (Oxford University Press)

• An experiment in motion an ongoing process without a clear end-state

• A system of shared power characterized by growing complexity and a increasing number of players

• An organization with expanding scope but limited capacity

Joint Degree administrations

are also effecting tasks Is managing tasks decisions that traditionally belonged solely to the institution

↔EU is trying to stamp its authority on the International scene

Joint Degrees although mostly known as European Degrees but also aiming to be International ↔

EU has taken more members and more tasks its institutional and political development has not keep in pace

Joint degrees operates with a minimum of 3 partners and sometimes even up to 15 partners It seems that there are often situations without a clear and equal task differentiation which often elopes into uncontrollable situations and passive sleeping partners

↔This mismatch between the EU´s task ambitions on the one hand and its institutional capacity on the other –raise questions about the EU´s future and ability to adapt

Ambitions of Joint Degrees Coordinators /Administration vs. the partners/individual actors actual commitment and subjective resistance –often the cause for slow progress and disputes

↔

EU managing tasks that

Traditionally belongs to

the nation-state
