abstract = {In recent years there has been a major, policy-driven
increase in research on the food-energy-water- (FEW-) nexus.
Although the concept has played a significant role in much
of the political sustainability debate since its emergence
in 2011, it is increasingly criticized for its conceptual
character and lack of practicability. To address the
question of the concept’s application in the political
practice of the European Union, an analysis of currently
existing EU policies has been conducted with specific focus
on implemented nexus thinking. To limit the scope of the
study, policy documents were chosen from the major political
frameworks within the directly nexus-relevant policy sectors
agricultural, energy and water policy, most notably – but
not exclusively – the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP),
the EU Energy Strategy, and the Water Framework Directive
(WFD), as well as documents which address the integration
among those. The study included a total of 50 policy
documents. An inductive research approach was chosen to
derive a FEW nexus specific coding system for the
computer-assisted, semi-quantitative and qualitative
analysis of the documents. The results reflect the fact
that, in the past, policy design has mostly been framed
within sectoral mandates, e.g., for water, agriculture or
energy. Cross-sectoral effects especially among all three
nexus resources have only recently been accounted for and
predominantly exist in the form of non-formalized statements
of intent. The establishment of cross-sectoral thinking is
most advanced between the sectors of agricultural and water
policy, mainly driven by their respective and historically
grown roles within the nexus system.},
