Europeanisation
Adopting continental norms
Europeanisation is the process of becoming more European in character, practices, or political alignment.
The term appears most often in discussions of countries adopting European Union standards, regulations, or cultural norms: Turkey's Europeanisation has been uneven.
It can also describe the spread of European influence more broadly, or the integration of national policies into EU frameworks.
Also spelled Europeanization.
