ABSTRACT
The final chapter brings together the findings of the previous chapters in a comprehensive manner and attempts to answer the question previously raised, namely, whether there is substantive Europeanisation in terms of CSDP. In addition, it provides an overall roadmap of the driving forces behind the Europeanisation process and a list of Europeanisation core issues in relation to the learning mechanism. It is a roadmap rather than a simple listing of mechanisms and factors inasmuch as the order of implementation is important for the successful establishment of the Europeanisation process. Hence, the emphasis on the learning mechanism can lead to the exploration of additional Europeanisation mechanisms that, in turn, could help to identify other Europeanisation forces at work.
