| Title | Change and the CAP: A Case Study Approach |
| Summary | Against a background of constant and intense criticism, the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union has proven resistant to attempts at economic and policy reform. Although shifts have taken place, the original principles set in the policy fifty years ago, as well as actual policies in some cases, are still visible today. In an effort to explain the difficulty of change, the competing conceptualizations of path dependency and process sequencing have emerged in the literature. While similar in some respects, these ideas differ in the envisioned level of restriction of choice. A sector-specific case study of the dairy regime and the use of production quotas is used to assess which concept best captures understanding of policy reform of the CAP. |
