From agriculture to security, the policies of the European Union have wide-reaching consequences for the EU's member states and citizens, and for the wider world. Policy-Making in the European Union begins with an overview of EU policy-making as a whole, defining the processes and institutions involved, and introducing the analytical approaches that are necessary for understanding them. A wide range of policy areas are then explored in detail, including the single market, environmental policy, migration, and foreign policy. The eighth edition recognises the expansion of the EU's policy agenda, exploring how the EU's digital policy has evolved in an increasingly digital society. It also considers the effects of key international developments, including the impact of Brexit on EU policies, and the EU's actions regarding climate change, following the 2015 Paris Climate Accord and the United States' subsequent withdrawal. Exploring the link between the modes and mechanisms of EU policy-making and its implementation at national level, Policy-Making in the European Union helps students to engage with the key issues related to policy. Written by experts, for students and scholars alike, this is the most authoritative and in-depth guide to policy-making in the European Union.
There are seminal books and classics, and then there is the eighth edition of Policy-Making in the EU. I remember reading the first one when I was a young student and they have followed me throughout my career from academia to civil service via politics and back. A must for anyone who wants to understand the theory and practice of European policy making. * Alexander Stubb, Director of the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute and former Prime Minister of Finland *
Policy-Making in the European Union is a classic. The European polity touches virtually every aspect of Europes societies, and this new edition illuminates how and why. It is a must-have for scholars and practitioners. * Liesbet Hooghe, UNC-Chapel Hill and European University Institute, Florence *
Newly updated, this remains the best textbook on policy-making in the EU! It offers an excellent combination of rich empirical assessments of the main fields of EU policies and lucid reflections on relating theories and methodological approaches. A must for scholars and students. * Andrew Moravcsik, Princeton University *
For over 40 years, Policy-Making in the EU has been an invaluable teaching resource and reference book. The new edition is again keeping up with the times. Thanks to its first-rate authors and unparalleled scope, it remains the authoritative source on the making, outcomes and development of EU policies. * Frank Schimmelfennig, ETH Zurich *
