This book provides a critical analysis of the European Union s approach to governance, focusing on the way in which civil society is incorporated within the EU decision-making process and arguing that it is not conducive to the democratisation of EU governance.
Using a governmentality approach, Kutay demonstrates that civic actors are not incorporated into EU decision-making processes as they are; rather, they are formed, manipulated and guided by political programming. The author explains how this acts to prescribe and construct particular types of subjectivities, thereby limiting and...

This book is the first monograph to systematically explore the relationship between citizenship and collective identity in the European Union, integrating two fields of research - citizenship and collective identity.

This book examines the first five years of Polish EU membership. The combination of Poland's potential power as a major, and possibly controversial, player in both the region and Europe as a whole, and the apparent salience of Euroscepticism in domestic electoral politics at the core of the Polish government and party system presented the possibility that Poland would be a new awkward partner' in Europe. However, although Poles may have voted for EU-critical parties in large numbers no Eurosceptic backlash' has emerged. In fact, far from being a new awkward partner', Poland has tried to...

This book provides a path-breaking political theory of EU identity formation by drawing on an interpretative tradition that grounds political identities in the speeches and deeds of political actors.

The European Union's enlargement has been considered a success story - apart from Cyprus and Turkey. This book looks at the EU's expansion and examines its effectiveness in terms of international socialization and compliance, focussing specifically on the socialization of Turkey and Cyprus into the Western community. Although NATO-member Turkey submitted its membership application long before the end of the Cold War, the Kemalist state still struggles to become the first Muslim EU member state. Cyprus was allowed to join the organization in 2004, but the island remains a divided entity....
