The second working paper of the project has been published entitled „Die Europaaktivitäten der deutschen Städte und Gemeinden“. This working paper presents the results of our survey on the Europe-related activities of German cities and municipalities. It focuses on the question of how Europeanisation affects the local level and which activities municipalities have developed and routinely pursue to respond to the challenge of Europeanisation on the one hand and actively shape Europeanisation on the other.
