Analysis and comparison of the priorities of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the European Social Fund (ESF) in the light of the overall objectives for the cohesion policies. What are their differences in scope? Where are similarities? Where are potential synergies? 3. For the funding period 2007-2013 the budget of the European Structural Funds is dedicated to certain objectives and financial instruments. How is the present distribution of the financial means of the Structural Funds? What are the main reasons and criteria having guided the decision for this distribution?

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,0, Berlin School of Economics and Law (Fernstudieninstitut), course: EUROPEAN COHESION POLICIES, language: English, abstract: The first chapter is divided into two sections; the first section aims to present the most important steps toward the current systems of European Cohesion and Funding Policies, and the second section summarizes the main funding streams of the current cohesion policy. In addition, in the second part, the linkage between the different financial instruments and the objectives of Structural Fund assistance is clarified. The second chapter examines the effectiveness and efficiency of the cohesion policy in reducing regional disparities, with a reference to the preceding funding period. Due to the restriction on the length of in this paper, the reduction of regional disparities will be assessed by examining economic performance and employment according to the objectives of the cohesion policy and its financial instruments. Due to the difficulties in separating the contributions of the cohesion policy from the overall effects of progress, the achievements of the Lisbon objectives will be scrutinized in the following section. Selected Structural Indicators will be examined to remark on the progress in the set key areas. The following section aims to conduct a partial examination of the impact and weaknesses of pre-accession assistance. Examining the question of institutional and administrative capacity building, the section will scrutinize the development of economic performance of and employment levels in the new Member States in the 2000–2006 funding period. The objective of the preceeding chapter is to determine the impacts of the Europe 2020 objectives on cohesion policy, examine the adequacy of established goals, and compare the Europe 2020 objectives with those of the Lisbon Strategy. The objective of the last section is to analyze the proposals for a reformed cohesion policy as submitted in the BARCA report. Therefore, the advantages and disadvantages that appears when considering the proposals will be discussed. In addition, the main differences with the current practice will be considered.

Book excerpt: The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.tandfebooks.com/doi/view/10.4324/9781315401867, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0 license. This book brings together academics, members of European institutions, and regional and national level policymakers in order to assess the performance and direction of EU Cohesion policy against the background of the most significant reforms to the policy in a generation. Responding to past criticisms of the effectiveness of the policy, the policy changes introduced in 2013 have aligned European Structural and Investment Funds with the Europe 2020 strategy and introduced measures to improve strategic coherence, performance and integrated development. EU Cohesion Policy: Reassessing performance and direction argues that policy can only be successfully developed and implemented if there is input from both academics and practitioners. The chapters in the book address four important issues: the effectiveness and impact of Cohesion policy at European, national and regional levels; the contribution of Cohesion policy to the Europe 2020 strategy of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth; the importance of quality of government and administrative capacity for the effective management of the Funds; and the inter-relationships between institutions, territory and place-based policies. The volume will be an invaluable resource to students, academics and policymakers across economics, regional studies, European studies and international relations.

Those coming to the field for the first time will instantly recognize that they are in the presence of a masterwork that can always be turned to with profit and that helps in understanding the rationale underlying any EU law provision or principle.

Download or read book EU Cohesion Policy and European Integration written by John Bachtler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EU Cohesion policy accounts for a major share of the EU budget and is central to economic and social development in many European countries. This book provides a comprehensive and theoretically-informed analysis of how Cohesion policy has evolved over time, in particular the budgetary and policy dynamics of the 2007-13 reform. In the context of the budgetary politics of the EU, the book examines the process by which the reform of Cohesion policy has been shaped; it identifies the key factors that explain the allocation of funding, assesses the roles of the Member States, European Commission and European Parliament, and tests whether the process and outcome are consistent with the expectations of EU decision-making and integration theories. Based on extensive, EU-wide research over a ten-year period, the book provides new insights into both the process and outcomes of EU policy reform. Presenting original research in an accessible format, this book will be of interest to scholars as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of European integration and policy studies.

Download or read book Funding the Greek Crisis written by Constantinos Ikonomou and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one distinguish between European Union investments that improve welfare and those that create economic malaise? Funding the Greek Crisis: The European Union, Cohesion Policies, and the Great Recession explores the sources of the Greek Crisis that lie primarily in EU policies that appeared to have worked better for other countries but not for Greece. Without overly simplifying the Greek condition, it provides insights into policies the countries of the euro area may need to implement in order to ensure collective cohesion and individual success. Arguing that EU preferences for autonomous investments discouraged organic development with lasting implications, Funding the Greek Crisis sheds new light on the nature of regional competitiveness and public economics. Encompasses public economics, macroeconomics, international trade, competitiveness, microeconomics and regional development studies Sheds light on key policies that affect millions of EU citizens Examines Solow’s growth model Provides a different way of explaining growth from real business cycle theory
