Politics in the European Union Paperback - 2011

From the publisher

Enhanced by an accessible writing style and a variety of pedagogical resources, Politics in the European Union offers an up-to-date, balanced, and comprehensive introduction to the field. The third edition features a new coauthor, Simon Bulmer, and adds chapters on the impact of the Lisbon Treaty; environmental policy; and freedom, security, and justice. Divided into four sections--theory, history, institutions, and policies--it opens with detailed coverage of key theoretical concepts, which are also integrated and referred back to throughout the book in order to help students draw links between the EU in theory and in practice. Ideal for students who are approaching the subject for the first time, Politics in the European Union, Third Edition, is accompanied by an extensive Companion Website. The site contains resources for students--an interactive map of Europe, an interactive timeline of European integration, multiple-choice questions, a flashcard glossary, and related links--and instructors--PowerPoint-based slides (new to this edition), essay questions, seminar questions and activities, and figures and tables from the book.
