Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Articles are invited for this Special Issue of Social Sciences. These articles—from across all social science disciplines (including law)—should have a focus on the implications of the UK's withdrawal from the European Union for the Union as a whole, as well as its member states. Articles with a focus on the implications for the UK itself will also be considered if these are placed in a wider European context (as regards populism, Euro-scepticism, dynamics of EU-related referenda, etc.). Articles on the impact of Brexit on particular EU policy areas, institutions, economic sectors, trade, and regulatory frameworks are sought, as are those that consider the impact of Brexit on the wider processes of European integration/disintegration (its speed, architecture, dynamics and direction). Articles on the precise dynamics of EU–UK negotiations are also encouraged on Article 50 itself, phase 1 and phase 2 of the withdrawal negotiations and negotiations on a 'final status' agreement where consideration is given to potential models for future EU–UK bilateral relations. Finally, we would welcome comparative articles dealing with the policy positions of different member-states on the Brexit negotiating issues, including the impact of Brexit on their perceived national interests. The overall goal of this Special Issue is to deepen our understanding of how Brexit will impact upon the wider European project, the European Union's policies, institutions and political/constitutional dynamics, and on EU member states themselves.
