Description
This introduction to the politics of policy-making in the European Community was first published in 1985, and soon became established as a standard work. In this new and revised edition, George explains the successes, and the more frequent failures, of the Community in its attempts to formulate common policies. First outlining the institutional framework within which policy-making occurs, looking at the international and national contexts of its formulation, George then examines in depth seven major policy areas: energy, agriculture, internal market policy, economic and monetary union, regional policy, social policy, and European political cooperation.

Description
This introduction to the politics of policy-making in the European Community was first published in 1985, and soon established itself as a standard work on the subject. It was particularly praised for the way in which it set policy-making in the context of domestic and international political and economic factors, and for the range and depth of its coverage. In this new and completely revised edition Stephen George explains the successes, and the more frequent failures, of the Community in its attempts to formulate common policies. He begins by outlining the institutional framework within which policy-making occurs, looking at the international and national contexts of its formulation. He goes on to examine in depth seven major policy areas: energy, agriculture, internal market policy, economic and monetary union, regional policy, social policy, and the European political co-operation.
He has also elaborated on the theoretical base of the argument of the first edition, and his approach to the subject should prove valuable both to students taking courses directly concerned with the European Community and to those studying Europe as part of more general courses in politics and economics.
