AVRUPA ENTEGRASYONUNUN KRİZİ, REFORMLAR VE SOSYAL TARAFLAR: NASIL BİR UZLAŞI?

Bu çalışmanın iki amacı vardır. İlki Avrupa entegrasyonunun krizinin Avrupa Çalışmaları literatüründe nasıl çalışıldığını ve ne gibi reform stratejilerinin önerildiğini analiz etmektir. İkincisi ise Avrupa sermaye grupları ve emek hareketinin ve Avrupa Birliği’nin kurumlarının krizi nasıl değerlendirdiği ve geleceğe dair nasıl bir entegrasyon tasarladığını tartışmaktır. Çalışmada, anaakım literatürün krizi entegrasyon politikalarının kötü yönetiminden kaynaklandığını vurgularken, eleştirel siyasal iktisat yazınının literatüre özellikle dört katkısının olduğu tartışılmıştır: Avro-krizini küresel faktörlere içkin analiz etmesi; analizlerine sınıf politikalarını entegre etmesi; Avrupa entegrasyonunun açmazlarının ve alternatif politikaların sorgulanması. Çalışmada ayrıca Avrupa entegrasyonunun geleceğine dair tartışmalar konusunda Avrupa sermayesinin dijital Tek Pazar’ın kurulmasını önerirken, Avrupa emek hareketinin daha iddialı bir Sosyal Gündem ile sosyal adalet, insana yakışır iş ve adil dijitalleşmeyi sağlamayı hedeflediği vurgulanmıştır.

Crisis of European Integration, Reforms and Social Forces: What Kind of a Compromise?

This study has two aims. First, it aspires to uncover how European integration crisis is explained and what kind of reforms are proposed in European studies literature. Second, it aims to study what kind of strategies European capital and labour groups as well as European institutions develop regarding the reform process and debates around the future of European integration. It argues that whereas mainstream reads crisis as mismanagement, critical political economy contributes to situate Euro-zone crisis within structural dynamics, integrate policies of social classes and question contradictions and alternatives. The representatives of European capital prioritizes strategies to form digital Single Market, whereas European labour prioritizes a more ambitious Social Agenda to guarantee social justice, decent work and just digitalization.
