Opis

This volume analyses different facets of the European Union: closer integration among the member states; policy making within a ‘normal’ political system; and the implications of European integration for its member states. It also considers whether the challenges currently confronting the EU mark an inflection point for the Union and for the study of the EU. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public Policy.
