The Creeping Nationalisation of the EU Enlargement Policy
"Often presented as the "most successful EU policy", enlargement has undoubtedly been one of the most significant undertakings of the European Union over the last two decades. The recent admission of numerous states to the Union has however exposed various shortcomings in the way that policy is carried out. In the context of growing scepticism about further EU expansion, the response to those shortcomings has, on the whole, taken the form of a strengthening of Member States' influence and control.
