The Europeanization of Eastern Europe: the external incentives model revisited (2019, background): “For example, Europeanization scholars were sceptical regarding the robustness of Europeanization when EU conditionality weakened after accession (Epstein and Sedelmeier 2008; Schimmelfennig and Sedelmeier 2005c: 226–228; Sedelmeier 2008).”
From Conditionality to Europeanization in Central and Eastern Europe: Administrative Performance and Capacity in Cohesion Policy (2014, background): “This is salient given concerns about a possible “reversal” of pre-accession progress as a result of changes in EU incentive structures (Epstein & Sedelmeier, 2008; Dimitrova & Toshkov, 2009; Meyer-Sahling, 2009; Dimitrova, 2010).”

The politics of EU conditionality: the norm of minority protection during and beyond EU accession (2008, background): “The post-enlargement context provides a new testing ground for the study of the effectiveness of EU conditionality in anchoring political, economic and legal reforms in Central and Eastern Europe (see Epstein and Sedelmeier 2008).”
Tempered by the EU? Political parties and party systems before and after accession (2008, background): “The third is to begin exploring how well mechanisms of EU influence on parties are working in conditions that are less auspicious because countries that have already acceded are no longer subject to the EU’s membership conditionality (see Epstein and Sedelmeier 2008).”
