Lecture 2. Enlarging the
European Union
Any European State, which respects
the principles of liberty, democracy,
respect for human rights and fundamental
freedoms, and the rule of law, may apply
to become a member of the Union.
Treaty on European Union (article 49)
The European Union has been enlarging ever
since it was created at the beginning of the
1950s. Since then the Union has growth from
the initial six members to the current 15
through a series of enlargements.
In the beginning of the 21st century the
process of enlargement is considered to be
the main goal and a historic task for the Union
so that the integration of the continent could
be continued further by peaceful means,
extending a zone of stability and prosperity.
So the process of integration and adoption of
new members is still continuing. The success
of the EU and the values it is based on
attracts other new countries to become a
member of the Union.
Lecture 3. Fifth and Sixth
Framework Programmes
The Fifth Framework Programme (FP5) constitutes the
priorities for the European Union's research, technological
development and demonstration (RTD) activities for the
period 1998-2002. These priorities have been chosen on
the basis of a number of common criteria reflecting the
major concerns of the quality of life for European citizens
and increasing industrial competitiveness.
The FP5 is aimed to help solve problems and to respond to
the major socio-economic challenges facing Europe. By
focusing on a limited number of research areas combining
technological, industrial, economic, social and cultural
aspects the FP5 maximizes its impact. This program
provides a coherent and truly European framework for
supporting research and technological development as part
of Community research policy and constitutes a four-year
strategic plan for the period 1999-2002. During this period,
it will stimulate transnational collaboration in research,
particularly between industry and universities, and the
establishment of networks of excellence.
A budget of 13 700 million euro has been agreed for
European Community FP5. Combined with 1 260 million
euro for Euratom FP5 the budget for 1999-2002 Framework
Program is 14960 million euro.
