Geographical Indications in the EU - A study on reasons for uneven distribution and Europeanisation aspects
(2021) STVM23 20202Department of Political Science
- Abstract
- Since 1992 the European Union has been granting certificates attesting the veracity and legitimacy of products in all of the EU. Such certificates are a symbol of the importance given by the European Union to the protection of regional products against falsifications of unique foodstuff products and the maintenance of good reputation of rural producers and rural areas.
There is, however, a great discrepancy in the number of accreditations of Geographical Indication protections and recognitions among different areas of the Union. This work dedicates itself to the understanding of why such difference and unevenness in distribution exists, going through historical, technical and sometimes institutional aspects of the European Union...

There is, however, a great discrepancy in the number of accreditations of Geographical Indication protections and recognitions among different areas of the Union. This work dedicates itself to the understanding of why such difference and unevenness in distribution exists, going through historical, technical and sometimes institutional aspects of the European Union Geographical Indications system.
In order to do so, tools from Historical Institutionalism theory and Europeanisation theory are combined with Co-Variational Analysis (COV) and Causal-Process Tracing (CPT) in an effort to understand the reasons why such unevenness exists and what is the level of Europeanisation linked to the Geographical Indications scheme in the European Union.
