| Abstract: | While the consequences of becoming an EU Member State for national policies are usually the core concern of pre-membership debates and of post-accession assessments, studies of the effects of European integration on the political systems of the Member States have so far been less numerous. Among the new EU members, Austria is a particularly challenging case in terms of top-down impact on the national political system. The basic research question of this article is whether or not these measures were actually successful. The conclusions distinguish specific Austrian variables from generalizable ones and discuss the findings in the light of the existing literature. |
