What are the limits of the Brussels Effect regarding American car-related regulations? The thesis gains insight into the limits of the Brussel Effect. Since no previous study had researched the topic (Pratt, 2021), the focus was to find correlations between the American political debate and the EU-regulation 2019/2144. The qualitative interpretivist research design (Marsh, Ercan, and Furlong, 2018, p. 184) tests gathered material, such as political bills and further material tied to specific American bills, via an informed understanding of the theory. The Brussel Effect is deconstructed into analytical categories (Bradford, 2020, p. 25) and subsequently used to analyze the material. The conclusion is that while interesting positive correlations between stringency and non-divisions are found, the results are negative, meaning further research is necessary to understand future causal connections. (Bradford, 2020, p. 26, 41, 46, 48, 60; Banack, 2021, p. 3).
