Description

Based on exhaustive research, this book explains how the European Union makes decisions in seven major policy sectors. Written in a clear, user friendly style, it brings the EU alive for a student and non specialist audience. The book's central themes are that informal norms often matter more than formal rules, agency often matters more than structure, and abrupt change often punctuates deadlock. It offers a theoretically-based introduction to the politics of a unique experiment in modern governance.

  • institutions, rules and norms
  • the internal market
  • external trade
  • the common agricultural policy
