Acknowledgements

This book is based on the dissertation I have defended at the Hertie School of Governance on October 1, 2015. I am thankful for all the support, encouragement and advice I have received during the time of writing the dissertation. Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor, Prof. Dr. Anke Hassel, who has supported me by providing academic guidance and encouragement throughout the entire research project. Her thoughtful advice helped me develop this project, ask relevant questions. I would like to express special thanks to Prof. Dr. Klaus Hurrelmann who has stepped in during a crossroad and helped successfully finalise the doctoral process. My research project was funded by the Friedrich Ebert Foundation. During many discussions with the community of scholarship holders and during the foundation’s events, I gained valuable insights for this work and beyond. I would like to thank my interview partners for taking the time to share their perspectives on the Copenhagen process and its implementation in the member states. Without their commitment and openness, this book would not have been what it is today. During my field trip
