    The Development of the European Nuclear Energy Policy: Explaining Factors apart from Actor-Centered Approaches
    in Oesterreichische Zeitschrift für Politikwissenschaft , 2009/4 ,  2009 ,  467-482
    The article is based on the assumption that the modest development of EURATOM in the past 50 years can be explained to a large extent by framework conditions apart from specific interest coalitions of key actors. Firstly, a short legal analysis of the ten EURATOM regulatory areas helps to find those areas which offer significant potential for ?spill over?-processes. In a second step, relevant political and economic framework conditions, which foster or hinder supranational integration in the nuclear sector, are identified and discussed. The conclusion includes a short debate on the future of the EU?s nuclear energy policy.
