Trade, value & supply chains
Background
â–· The trade relations within the EU and with its non-EU commercial partners impact European and global value and supply chains.
â–· Trade agreements and value chain disruptions have been a hot topic especially since the conclusion of the Brexit negotiations and during the first Covid-19 wave.
​
Without a deep understanding of the Single European Market’s importance, and the role of interest groups in its construction, it is impossible to evaluate the EU’s trade policies. Our unique political-economic approach to EU trade hence encompasses:
â–· the Single European Market,
â–· interest groups and lobbying, and
â–· effects on internal and external EU trade relations.
