Opis

This unique collection brings together leading scholars from a range of disciplines to assess and critique the key concept of multi-level governance. This is a concept which has been widely adopted to explain the changing nature of domestic and international politics ever since its early application to the EU.

Recenzje

Even those familiar with the literature on multi-level governance are likely to encounter new theoretical perspectives. Apart from the merits of the individual chapters, the real strength of the book lies in its thematic unity. Unlike many edited volumes, this book is not a collection of separate chapters that happen to be between the covers of the same book. Rather Ian Bache and Matthew Flinders ensure that this edited volume is tightly focused.Given the complexity of the concept this is a considerable achievement. For serious scholars of multi-level governance the book is essential reading.
