This will allow this study to give a comprehensive overview of the EU’s regulatory impact across the different policy areas. The policy areas that this thesis analyses are defined as economic, environmental, political and societal. It will be... (More)
This thesis analyses if and how the EU’s regulatory impact differs between policy areas in the High North. This question will be examined through the lens of the ‘regulatory power Europe’ framework, which is represented by Bradford’s interpretation of the Brussels Effect. This comparative study utilizes a mixedmethod approach scrutinizing quantitatively all applicable regulations in the Arctic as well as using the benefits of a literature review for the qualitative evaluation of specific regulations. This will allow this study to give a comprehensive overview of the EU’s regulatory impact across the different policy areas. The policy areas that this thesis analyses are defined as economic, environmental, political and societal. It will be shown how these areas vary between each other, regarding the EU’s regulatory impact. To enhance the scope of the thesis, this paper will scrutinize the relevance of the Exclusive Economic Area for the EU’s regulatory impact in the Arctic. That will allow this study to showcase some of the EU’s strengths and weaknesses related to its regulatory capacities in the High North. (Less)
