Description

This new edition of the established standard text on policy-making in the European Union has been extensively updated and rewritten to take into account all the most important recent developments in EU affairs. The new edition is even more comprehensive than its predecessor. It now includes 15 case studies of European Union policy-making in a range of different fields. In addition, there are updated introductory chapters on EU institutions and policy processes, and a new chapter explaining the various theoretical approaches to the making of policy in the EU. Major recent developments examined include the move to a single European currency, the expansion of common activities in justice and home affairs, recent initiatives to strengthen common foreign and security policy, negotiations on eastern enlargement, and efforts to reform the Common Agricultural Policy. Core policy fields covered include budgetary policy, trade, competition, and the Single Market. Case studies of environmental policy, social policy, and north-south relations illustrate the range and diversity of EU policy-making. Two entirely new case studies examine the common fisheries policy and the struggle to develop a common approach to biotechnology. The expert contributors come from six EU member states and from the USA. "The New European Union" series editors are: John Peterson, University of Glasgow and Helen Wallace, University of Sussex. The European Union is both the most successful modern experiment in international cooperation and a daunting analytical challenge to students of politics, economics, history, law and the social sciences. The EU of the twenty-first century will be fundamentally different from its earlier permutations, as monetary union, eastern enlargement, a new defence role, and globalization all create pressures for a more complex, differentiated, and truly new European Union. "The New European Union" series, under the general editorship of John Peterson and Helen Wallace, provides definitive textbooks on the major aspects of EU politics and integration as studied at undergraduate level. Each of the books in the series covers a key area of EU politics, and brings together the expertise of leading scholars in each area, writing in an accessible 'student-friendly' style, for an international readership. Each of the books follows a common format and makes extensive use of figures and tables; boxed features are used to highlight case studies and key issues, and each chapter ends with a guide to further reading and a range of discussion questions. The series offers lively, reader-friendly, research-based textbooks on: EU Policy-Making - the new fourth edition of Helen Wallace and William Wallace's leading text on policy-making in the EU forms the first book in the series: "The EU's Institutions"; "The History of European Integration"; "Theorizing Europe"; "The EU's Member States"; "The EU as a Global Actor"; and "The European Union: How Does it Work?"

Media Reviews

Praise for the Third Edition "This book is the best of its kind ... there is no more satisfactory introduction to the life of the European Union. I insist that my students use it." Ernst B. Haas, Professor of Government, University of California, Berkeley Praise for the Fourth Edition "More than ever, the fourth edition of Wallace and Wallace is a "must". This book nicely combines an analysis of EU sectoral policies by the best experts with the overall and systemic approach to the complex European machinery of the two editors. There is nothing equivalent on the market." Yves Meny, Director of the Robert Schuman Centre, European University Institute Readers looking for a solid, comprehensive account of European policy-making, authored by some of the best experts in the business, need look no further than this thoroughly updated revision of the Wallaces" classic text. Robert D. Putnam, Professor of Government, Harvard University Empirical richness and deep insights into the complexity, dynamics, and varieties of policy-making in the EU make this book an invaluable guide for those who want to learn what is really happening in Europe. It is also a powerful reminder to theorists and model-builders that attempts to force the intricacies of European multi-level governance into a single analytical scheme can easily end in frustration. Johan P. Olsen, ARENA Programme, University of Oslo In a crowded market of text books, the fourth edition of Policy-Making in the European Union extends the lead this book enjoys over its many competitors. Comprehensive in coverage, this book offers a depth of analysis that makes students understand the complexities of Europe's emerging polity without burdening them with unnecessary detail. This text works extremely well in very different kinds of courses that cover the policy process in the European Union. Peter J. Katzenstein, Walter S. Carpenter, Jr. Professor of International Studies, Cornell University
