Situated in the Tuscan hills overlooking Florence, the idyllic setting plays home to a unique institution dedicated to training PhD students and enhancing Europe\u2019s research capacity in economics, history, law, and social sciences.<\/p>\n<p>Although not an EU institution \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/Documents\/AboutEUI\/Convention\/Consolidated\">the EUI is an international organisation in its own right<\/a>, born out of a desire for cooperation between EU member states. The UK currently funds up to 20\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/ServicesAndAdmin\/AcademicService\/DoctoralProgramme\">PhD scholarships<\/a>\u00a0at a time, contributes to running costs and participates in the High Council that governs the institution. But it looks as though this is about to change.<\/p>\n<p>The UK government claims Brexit automatically entails leaving the European University Institute Convention \u2013 the legal document that established the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/\">European University Institute<\/a>\u00a0when it was founded. But academic experts say\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/europeanlawblog.eu\/2019\/02\/15\/henry-viii-arrives-in-florence-the-uks-withdrawal-from-the-convention-establishing-a-european-university-institute\/\">this is not actually the case<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the UK government has put forward what\u2019s known as a \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/eu-withdrawal-act-2018-statutory-instruments\/the-european-university-institute-eu-exit-regulations-2019\">statutory instrument<\/a>\u201d to complete the disentanglement of legal obligations stemming from membership of the Convention.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>An atmosphere of cooperation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The back story of the EUI itself demonstrates why the benefits of cooperation between states does not happen automatically and requires compromises \u2013 as well as sites of mutual interaction.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cadmus.eui.eu\/handle\/1814\/36018\">Plans for a European university<\/a>\u00a0were discussed long before the Convention was signed in 1972. Some wanted a university specialising in nuclear physics, others dreamed of launching a European rival to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology \u2013 the pioneering technology university that became global leader in cutting-edge research.<\/p>\n<p>The remit of the establishment was the subject of high-level negotiations. Italy pushed hard for locating it in Florence and West Germany asked for German to be an official working language. The somewhat clunky name came after France objected to the use of \u201cuniversity\u201d for a small institution restricted in student size and subject scope.<\/p>\n<p>Another problem stemmed from recognition of degrees. In some European countries (not the UK) the state is responsible for granting validity to university degrees, meaning\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/ProgrammesAndFellowships\/DoctoralProgramme\/Recognition\">legal provisions were necessary<\/a>\u00a0to give an EUI title the same status as national doctorates.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Ties that bind<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>British universities recruit numerous EUI graduates \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www2.aston.ac.uk\/lss\/staff-directory\">there are four in my own medium-sized politics department<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 who bring with them a wealth of Europe-wide contacts and often expertise in EU governance.<\/p>\n<p>These are the skills needed for transnational research collaboration and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukri.org\/innovation\/excellence-with-impact\/\">for informing policy<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 two central pillars of UK higher education as promoted by the government. Many EUI graduates also go on to work in the upper echelons of the public sector across Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Since the 2016 referendum, the UK has reformulated its diplomatic strategy in a bid to cement bilateral European ties. This has\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/publications.parliament.uk\/pa\/cm201719\/cmselect\/cmfaff\/514\/51406.htm\">led to a refocus on EU capitals<\/a>\u00a0and relocation of staff from Asia to Europe as well as, a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/more-than-2-billion-brexit-preparation-funding-awarded-to-departments-for-a-successful-eu-exit\">boost in funding for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office<\/a>\u00a0(FCO). The FCO nevertheless still faces significant\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.personneltoday.com\/hr\/foreign-office-faces-challenge-in-attracting-the-best-staff-needed-for-brexit\/\">challenges in recruiting the right candidates<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Reducing UK involvement in the EUI does not fit with these desires for a \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/beyond-brexit-global-britain-looks-to-the-emerging-anglosphere-for-new-opportunities-77562\">Global Britain<\/a>\u201d agenda \u2013 nor for enhanced research collaborations.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>A microcosm of Brexit<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>What may look like a mere footnote in the vast legislative process of leaving the EU, is actually extremely revealing about the hollowness of that whole enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>For a start, this episode illustrates the way Brexit has increased the strength of the government. Outward appearances of the Conservatives in turmoil are deceptive because they mask the accumulation of legislative power granted under the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk\/explainers\/eu-withdrawal-act\">EU Withdrawal Act<\/a>. This law allows ministers to put in place regulations for the greater good of enacting EU withdrawal. And these regulations have wide-ranging implications and minimal scrutiny.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_46974\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46974\" src=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/blinfoldBrexit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46974\" srcset=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/blinfoldBrexit.jpg 680w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/blinfoldBrexit-250x167.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-46974\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">People\u2019s Vote supporters wearing blindfolds and carrying placards assemble in Parliament Square.

It states there is no need for an impact assessment because \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/assets.publishing.service.gov.uk\/media\/5c5c517c40f0b676c9e16009\/EUI_EM.pdf\">no, or no significant, impact on the public sector<\/a>\u201d from quitting the Convention. But is this really the case?<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Symbolism above all else<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It is hard to discern what the UK wants to achieve by leaving the European University Institute Convention. The EUI must be doing something right because the government has promised to \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/assets.publishing.service.gov.uk\/media\/5c5c517c40f0b676c9e16009\/EUI_EM.pdf\">explore options for ongoing engagement with the EUI<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>What is clear, however, is that the UK is preparing to exchange the current benefits it derives for the promise of a looser form of association. This creates uncertainty for UK doctoral students who are studying there and curtails prospects for the mobility of UK nationals.<\/p>\n<p>It seems then that the symbolism of leaving an institution associated with the EU trumps all other considerations. In other words, the UK approach to the The European University Institute is a distillation of the very essence of Brexit.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bio:<\/strong> Andrew Glencross is a Senior Lecturer in Politics and International Relations at Aston University<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may not have heard of it, but students from across Europe have been studying at\u00a0The European University Institute\u00a0(EUI) since 1976.
