Most works on CEE transitions have drawn from the comparative politics literature and treated international factors, at best, as secondary.

From Europeanisation to Diffusion: Introduction
Tanja A. Börzel,Thomas Risse +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a special issue explores to what extent policies and institutions of the European Union spread across different contexts, and what are the mechanisms of, and scope conditions for, their diffusion; and the scope conditions which are likely to affect domestic (or regional) change in response to the promotion or emulation of EU ideas and institutions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Europeanisation in new member and candidate states
TL;DR: The Europeanisation of candidate countries and new members is a rather recent research area that has grown strongly since the early 2000s as discussed by the authors, drawing on the debate between rationalist institutionalist and constructivist institutionalist approaches in International Relations and Comparative Politics.

EU Democracy Promotion in the European Neighbourhood Political Conditionality, Economic Development and Transnational Exchange
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the results of a panel study of 36 countries of the East European and Mediterranean neighbourhood of the EU for the years 1988-2004, showing robust and strong effects of EU political conditionality on democracy in the neighbouring countries if the EU offers a membership perspective in return for political reform.
