Abstract
The European Union’s (EU) enlargement represents one of its most transforma-tive projects, reflecting the Union’s capacity to foster integration, stability, andregional development. By expanding its borders, the EU not only reshapes itsinternal dynamics but also reinforces its normative and geopolitical influence.This article provides a comprehensive analytical framework for understandingthe dynamics of EU enlargement by discussing its three aspects: process, policy,and strategy. The interplay between these aspects offers an integrated perspec-tive to explore the contemporary discourses on institutional mechanisms, rule-based governance, and geopolitical strategy in EU enlargement.
