So i started to think about the possible topics for my paper and will now tell you which ones I chose. Or at least which ones came to my mind first:
1.) The Irish Abortion Law and how/why it works inside of the EU:
Personnally, I think that the Abortion Law violates the Human Rights. Therfore I'm wondering how/why it is even possible that it still exists as the Human Rights are an important part of the EU.
2.) Laws throughout the EU and in the different member states:
I've always been wondering how it is decided which laws become international and which ones don't. Also I would like to know which ones are more important, the national or the international laws. And what happens if a national law contradicts an international law?
3.) The NATO:
How is it related to the EU? Which one has more power? How do they influence each other?
4.) What global influence does the EU really have?
Is the EU as important as they try to make us think? How did the influenvce of European countries change when the EU was built?
5.) What does a country need to enter into the EU?
What are the exact conditions? Why are there conditions? Did all the countries really fulfill them or were the rules bent a little?
Basically all my topics came to my mind because of how little I know about the EU. These are some things I already was wondering about, so why not make one of them my topic?
So, what do you guys think? :)
I think the requirements for being a member state of the EU and the legal situation about the abortion Law in IReland are two very good topics, with the abortion law you can ask the two girls, which made a presentation about abortion in Ireland last year, Andrina and somebody else. The other topics are, for me, to less specific, but I haven't written an academic papaer yet, so who knows... ; )
ReplyDeleteI think that that your last topic, how to enter the EU is a great topic for research. I'd really like to know if it would be possible for any state to join the EU or if they have to change fundamentally to be allowed to do so. The only concern that I have is, that this topic may be really extensive.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise I'd love to read this article :)
