Challenges To Effective Energy Poverty Policy In The Netherlands
Heerts, Manon ; Noferini, Andrea (vedoucí práce) ; Stepanovic, Vera (oponent)
This paper studies policy on energy poverty at multiple levels of government in the Netherlands. Building on the theory of multilevel governance, it argues that energy poverty is a complex policy issue that requires that multiple levels of government coordinate the design and implementation of policy. It contributes to the literature by investigating the Netherlands, where energy poverty has long remained understudied. Using thematic analysis of policy documents and by conducting interviews with representatives of substate governments, the study identifies some of the main obstacles to effective policymaking on energy poverty in the Netherlands. These obstacles include the lack of a clear task division among different levels of government and a lack of long-term financial support from the central government. The study also finds that social actors such as interest groups and research institutes provide an essential platform to overcome some of these issues by fostering knowledge transfers and sharing best practices.
Determinants of Individual Support for European Integration: The Case of Ukraine
Kovalska, Olha ; Noferini, Andrea (vedoucí práce) ; Svoboda, Karel (oponent)
This paper investigates micro determinants of public support for EU integration in Ukraine as one of the Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries. Drawing from the vast literature focused on the post- communist Central and Eastern European states of the fifth EU enlargement, this study tests both utilitarian and value-based hypotheses of support. Giving a strong pro-EU orientation of Ukrainians and strengthening EU-Ukraine links amid the country's complicated security situation, Ukraine can serve as a 'hard test' for checking the validity of predictors. As there is little systematic research on individual determinants of support for the EU in the EaP countries, in this paper I use data from an original survey conducted among Ukrainian youth as a case study for investigation. The results show that adherence to democratic values and personal exposure to the West are strong predictors of pro-EU attitudes. Linguistic divisions tangible in Ukraine's society before Crimea's annexation in 2014 were found to have a low salience among Ukrainian youth, yet regional background is still a significant determinant for differing opinions on the EU integration.
