ABSTRACT The European Union (EU) harmonization has an evolving and dynamic nature. Different theoretical approaches (e.g., regulatory competition, coevolution, reflexive harmonization) are often echoed to delve into the EU harmonization. This article, going through these theories, endeavors to explain the harmonization discourse in the EU with a focus on the electronic communications sector. To understand the trajectory of the EU harmonization in this sector, two areas (“network access” and “spectrum regulation”) are selected as the subject-matter of the research. In conclusion, the legislative steps taken so far are found to restrict regulatory experimentation and innovation that this sector needs in the face of increasing challenges.

欧盟协调的终结：离心还是工程？

摘要 欧盟（EU）的协调具有不断发展和动态的性质。不同的理论方法（例如，监管竞争、共同进化、自反协调）经常被呼应以深入研究欧盟的协调。本文通过这些理论，努力解释欧盟的协调话语，重点关注电子通信领域。为了了解欧盟在该领域的协调轨迹，选择了两个领域（“网络接入”和“频谱监管”）作为研究主题。总之，迄今为止采取的立法措施限制了该部门在面临日益严峻的挑战时所需要的监管实验和创新。
