THE APPLICATION OF NEO(NEO)FUNCTIONALIST THEORY TO JUSTICE AND HOME AFFAIRS

This paper attempts a neofunctionalist appraisal of the development of Justice and Home Affairs, which has been one of the most dynamic EU policy areas in recent years. It argues that neofimctionalism can explain the increasing supranationalisation of this policy area despite the fact that internal security has traditionally been conceived as an integral part of national sovereignty.
