В данной работе авторами исследуются стратегии, идеи и позиции шведского научного сообщества в процессе создания Европейского исследовательского совета. Кейс интересен тем, что именно представители шведских организаций, финансирующих исследования, и академии принимали активное участие в данном проекте и оказали значительное влияние на его окончательную реализацию. Авторы описывают роли субъектов шведской политики и анализируют факторы, которые сформировали их позиции и стратегии. Основной целью работы является изучить, как внутриполитические процессы влияют на наднациональное институциональное строительство и каковы аспекты такого влияния. В статье приводится обоснование того, является ли позиция данных акторов отражением задач государственной политики, интересов конкретных организаций и групп интересов или они выступают от имени транснациональных сообществ. Вышеупомянутые вопросы изучаются сквозь призму трех различных версий институциональной теории. Авторы приходят к выводу о том, что процесс влияния акторов в Швеции носил восходящий характер, а именно инициаторами изменений являлись ученые и представители академического сообщества, правительство же выступало лишь гарантом и одобряло предложенные инициативы, в то же время придавая им легитимность. Кроме того, позиции акторов являются продолжением национального пути развития, то есть в какой-то степени характер предшествующих событий на национальной арене предопределял формирующуюся на тот момент европейскую повестку. 

The authors explore the strategies, concepts, and perspectives of the Swedish academic community during the creation of the European Research Council. This case is of particular research interest because representatives of Swedish research funding organizations and academies actively participated in the project and exerted a measurable influence during its final stages. The article examines the roles played by Swedish political actors and analyzes the factors that shaped their positions and strategies. Its main objective is to investigate how domestic political processes affect supranational institution-building and to identify the specific dimensions of this influence. The authors assess whether the positions of these actors reflect public policy goals, the interests of particular organizations and advocacy groups, or whether they act on behalf of transnational communities. These questions are addressed through the lens of three distinct versions of institutional theory. The authors conclude that the influence exerted by Swedish actors followed a bottom-up pattern: the driving forces behind the changes were scientists and representatives of the academic community, while the government played the role of guarantor – approving and legitimizing the proposed initiatives. Additionally, the positions taken by these actors are viewed as a continuation of Sweden’s national development trajectory. In other words, the nature of prior domestic events helped shape the European agenda that was emerging at the time.
