Between re-renationalisation and hyper-Lisbonisation: the long goodbye to the EU Cohesion Policy original goals
The article discusses whether the sequence of global shocks in the period 2020-2022 has influenced the shape and orientation of EU Cohesion Policy. It argues that these crises have revived two trends posited by scholars, i.e. the re-nationalisation and Lisbonisation of the policy, in ways that hint at the emergence of a new paradigm. This shift is conceptualised as ‘hyper-Lisbonisation’ and ‘re-renationalisation’, whereby the governance of Cohesion Policy is increasingly state-centric and its objectives more contingent upon the short-term and fast-evolving priorities of the EU agenda.
