Research
Carine Germond's research addresses historical and contemporary political actors and processes that have impacted important developments in international and European history. It covers key areas of (1) the diplomatic and political history of 20th-century Europe, with a focus on the role of individual leaders in Franco-German cooperation during the Cold War period and from the 1990s onwards; and (2) transnational history, with an emphasis on the role of experts and transnational societal actors in policy-making processes across several decades within the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy and in the European Parliament. In her research, she has used a range of methods of historical analysis, especially multi-archival comparative, cross-disciplinary, and transnational approaches.
Her current and planned research projects are chiefly driven by her interest in (a) the role of leading political figures and experts in political processes, (b) the role of state and non-state actors in transnational policy-making; (c) the emergence and growing significance of transnational cooperation patterns among and across states and non-state actors and (d) the transnational political and societal forces that have contributed to the evolution of International Organizations (IOs), including the European Union. She has published widely on these issues.
Her publications and research projects are structured around four main themes:
Research theme 1: State Actors, Bilateral Relations and European Cooperation
- Franco-German bilateral relationship and its role in European cooperation from the Cold War period to the present
- Post-war European integration history
Research theme 2: The Role of Transnational Societal Actors
- Farm interest groups and the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, 1967-1992
- Transnational expert networks and agricultural policy in International Organizations in the long 20th century
- Trust in Experts and Expert Governance in Europe
Research theme 3: Understanding the Evolution of the European Parliament
- The EPP Group in the (elected) European Parliament and its contributions to European integration
- The EP and the Common Agricultural Policy
- The AGRI Committee and agricultural policy reform
Research theme 4: Women in European Political Integration
- Women in agriculture: gendered roles and transnational mobilization
- Parliamentary trailblazers for Women? Female MEPs in the European Parliament”
- The Women who made Europe. A Gendered History of the European Union
