Summary/Abstract: Over time, the impact of the European Union on Member states, neighbouring countries and even globally has been analysed and measured and, in some cases, the accuracy of the results was questioned, considering the adequacy of the research methods used. At a time when there is a major debate about the EU's role as a global actor: on the one hand, about the decline of the EU's influence worldwide and, on the other hand, about the „Brussels effect” and „how the EU rules the world”, we shall analyse in a balanced manner and isolate as much as possible the impact of the EU in studies aimed at demonstrating the degree to which EU's preferences shape the action of actors and policies in Member States and worldwide.
