Produktbeschreibung

"Starting from the observation that the EU now possesses many of the attributes of modern political systems, Hix and H²yland take an innovative approach to analysing, researching and teaching the European Union. Using the general theories of political science to understand how the EU works, this text covers each of the main processes in the EU political system - executive, legislative and judicial politics, public opinion, interest groups and democracy, and regulatory, monetary and foreign policies - introducing the key political science tools, reviewing the relevant theories, and applying the knowledge in detailed descriptive analysis.
