本文对去欧洲化进行了完善的理论阐述并进行了测试，以评估其如何解释 2016 年后英国环境政策日益分化的情况。本文基于对相关政策文件、议会进程和法律改革的原始分析，揭示了政策、政治和政体如何发生了比最初预见的更显着的变化。它与现有文献不同，它揭示了 20 世纪 90 年代末的权力下放解决方案开启了从去欧洲化到脱离和积极重新参与的多种变革途径的可能性，而不是一种途径。它描述了英国政策——曾经脱离欧盟进程和机构的框架——如何通过布鲁塞尔、伦敦和权力下放政府之间的多层次谈判来重新制定。报告的结论是，尽管英国各地的政策目标相互冲突，但主要的变革模式仍然是逐渐脱离欧盟环境规则手册之一。
This article develops and tests a refined theoretical account of de-Europeanisation to assess how well it explains the increasing differentiation of UK environmental policy after 2016. Drawing on an original analysis of relevant policy documents, parliamentary processes and legal reforms, it reveals how policy, politics and polity have changed more significantly than was originally foreseen. It departs from the existing literature by revealing that the devolution settlements of the late 1990s opened up the possibility of not one, but multiple pathways of change ranging from de-Europeanization, through to dis- and active re-engagement. It describes how UK policy – once outside the framework of EU processes and institutions – is being re-shaped via a multi-level negotiation between actors in Brussels, London and the devolved administrations. It concludes that despite conflicting policy objectives across the UK, the predominant pattern of change is nevertheless one of gradual disengagement from the EU environmental rule-book.
