  • Summary

    In this chapter, we show how an EU policymaking episode, the EU–Turkey agreement, the most important episode in our study, is domesticated in national policymaking and how this works out differently depending on the member state. We compare the debates in four member states and then zoom in on the debates in the two most concerned member states. For Germany, this episode was instrumental in solving a domestic conflict between the chancellor and the governing parties, including her own party. Once the agreement was sealed, the German debate did not entirely subside, but it lost intensity and eventually faded out. The Greek debate, by contrast, picked up shortly before the conclusion of the agreement and then stayed intense during the implementation phase. Several years after the agreement was concluded, it gave rise to new domestic episodes in Greece, since the problems it created for Greece continued to remain unsolved.
